Dear Friends,
Every great trip ends at home! As Wojtek and I look back on our journey to the USA and Canada this summer, we count many blessings of our trip. We are amazed how God loves and provides. We are so thankful for all the conversations, hospitality, delicious meals and breathtaking views as we traveled.
After we returned home, we asked our 12 year old son, Dawid (born 4th of July…yes, we are super proud of it!), what was the most meaningful thing he experienced as we traveled from place to place.
His answer was so special that we wanted to share our joy with you about his response. He said, “The most special thing that happened is when I got baptized and committed the rest of my life to Jesus.” Wow! Can anything be more special than that?
Our friends, Gary and Leslianne, invited us to spend the weekend at their beautiful lake house located on a steep hill by Pickwick Lake. The view was spectacular. The scene out of each window was peaceful and inspiring.
For over a year, Dawid had talked with us about baptism and we had discussed the significance of this spiritual step. So on July 13, he was baptized by his dad and Pastor Rick Sayger from Colonial Hills Church.
We were so proud, so moved and to be honest, relieved as parents. We know that teenage years are coming our way. We truly believe these years will be much easier for our family as Dawid holds onto Jesus.
It is amazing to watch our little boy turning into a man after God’s own heart!
We are so grateful for having you as our family, for being there for us in different challenges, missions projects and ministry, but also your being in places of celebrations such as Dawid’s baptism. He has grown up with the sense of being part of God’s family. How wonderful is that?
Even though our son has only one grandma left, he has been blessed with many spiritual aunties, uncles, grandmas and grandpas who love him and wish him the best.
I sense that one day Dawid will be a great testimony to many by returning the love that he has received. He is already a joyful witness.
Thank you for loving on our boy and being part of our life and ministry. This summer’s trip was the best of our lives!
Blessings, Agnieszka
