Baby Dedication
Nikita was a month old when we brought him to church for the first time.

Nikita's dedication
We presented him to the Lord and in the presence of the Church Body. It was a very special moment for me as a dad and pastor. The church also prayed a blessing on our family. It was beautiful.
This year has been a special year for me in the church. We’ve had lots of church family moments. Salvations, baptisms, new discipleship happening, a wedding, an engagement, 3 babies born. It’s wonderful to see the church growing in number (we just recently bought another 20 chairs for the hall) and in relationship to the Lord and each other.

Dear Wayne, Olya & Boys,
Just a quick note to say we are thinking of you all, and so pleased to hear that Nikita has settles, and has been dedicated to the Lord. I am sure you will all be blessed mightily in the coming months and years. Sorry to hear that the trip is not happening for this Christmas – must be more important things happening over there for you and the church family. We are certainly rejoicing in Christ that all are safe and well after the fireboming episode. Praise God – He is still there in charge on His throne. It may well be that through this more mighty and exciting things will come to pass for your community. One never can know just how God uses what happens. Exciting times.
We do pray that you received the personal mail sent from BVCC (cheque for baby). Yes, your ministry is an excouragement to us and to all our congregation here in Esk.
The indoor sporting complex sounds fantastic – I’m sure the folks there will enjoy it. Great news that your volunteers helped keep cleanup costs down – guess it would have been a time for good fellowship not otherwise had. Amazing how God works. We will continue to pray for the ‘improvement of safety’ needs.
All our love and best wishes for a very happy and safe Christmas season, and a blessed and prosperous New Year 2010. God Bless, Julie and all the folks here in Brisbane Valley Christian Church, Esk. ( a very hot Queensland at present.)
