Our church as well believes in baptism as an outward act of an inward commitment, and we also wait until our children (or however old) are at least 8 or older and make the choice themselves, knowing what they are promising to Jesus. I love that your church also teaches this beautiful way of consciously making that choice! So happy for all of you!
Not me CRYING when you shared that the boys are getting baptized. How beautiful and special. Praise Jesus for their young faith. I pray it grows with them and that they choose Jesus every single day of their lives. You will be blessed mama, for sharing your faith so beautiful with them and with us. 🩷
Natalie it is so nice you let your children choose their own faith. Congratulations to Liam and Judah that they have found a path which they can follow that will help support them through life.
If they can't choose it for themselves, then it's not genuine! We are SO proud of our boys for stepping out in faith and starting their journey with Jesus!
God do we need more people in this world in todays world as you and your husband are and raising your kids with knowing our Lord and Savior!!! U r a bright light and a beautiful soul Natalie..congrats boys for taking that leap!!!..safe travels🩷🙏🩷
{crying} Not only the news of your boys’ decision to outwardly express their (already longstanding!) faith -and at such a young age- *and* that their Dad will be baptizing them… but ohhhh, to hear you, their Momma, so proudly share it with all of us… PRICELESS and wonderful. ✨✋🥰🤚✨
OOOHHH - Momma/Mamaw heart melt . . . soooo happy that your sons have decided to accept the Lord into their hearts !!!! such a blessing and what a testament to you and Weston that you have raised them to know how important this is in their lives !!! Will be praying for all of you and especially the boys as they enter this exciting new chapter of their life !!!! God Bless.
If and when my children decide to make this amazing and life changing decision, will be the proudest moments of my life! Congratulations! Praying for you all! God is so GOOD! ❤
Hello from Hungary 😊 I've been following your channel for 6 years and I'm still so grateful to watch every new video! Full of love, joy and pure faith - a very cozy space to be in this wild world. Thank you, Natalie ❤
This is so special, and I congratulate you on waiting to baptize your children. As someone who was baptized at 7 (but didn’t exactly have biblical teachings brought to my heart so had zero understanding of what was happening ), then spent my lifetime as an atheist, and then came to God maybe two whole years ago, having my children choose to get baptized and to make that commitment to God is exactly how I want us to do this. I’m hoping that by touching their hearts with the word of God, rather than pushing things onto them it will lead them to a life where they know the love of God in their hearts as opposed of just knowing of God.
I love how supportive you are of your children's walk with faith and religion. It's so beautiful for them to want their dad to baptize them.😭 Congrats to them both!!!
Well praise God! It’s great to see a family that collectively love The Creator! Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. GREAT JOB MOM & DAD, keep it up!! ❤
Praise God for the boys baptism! We just had the baptism conversation in my small church group Sunday night after one couple shared that their 9 yr old has asked to be baptized. I share your beliefs and thank you for sharing them. Blessings on your while family! ♥
There is no better feeling than to know your children strive to walk with Jesus. You and your husband are awesome examples for your kiddos. Congrats boys and welcome to the family🙌🏼
Natalie, you and your beautiful family continue to AMAZE me with your godly lifestyle, service and commitment. I am so excited for your opportunity to serve the youth at camp together and praise God for the boys' decision to be baptized! Clearly you've provided them with a firm foundation. I'm sure you all had great fun and blessed the lives of the youth lucky enough to have you and Weston as role models. God bless!
This is so amazing. Me and my sisters got to all be baptized on the same day by our dad and it was so amazing! We believe the same thing, that baptism is an outward expression of an inward change.
Praise the Lord for how the Lord is working in Liam and Judah’s life! Excited to hear about their baptisms and prayers for safe travels during your trips this summer! God bless!
What a wonderful news! So proud of these young brothers in Christ! That's so cool that they got to experience Youth camp with y'all too. I know your Mama heart is bursting with joy!
Listening to the last five minutes of the video and weeping for joy. Praise God that the boys have chosen to declare their love for Christ in this way. He is so good.
My, then 8 yr old son, asked Jesus into his heart and was saved in October last year. He decided a few months ago he was ready to be baptized. My brother is a pastor and was able to come into town to our church and baptize my son just 4 weeks ago. It was so special to our family and my mama heart was so full of joy. I believe once saved always saved so I know my child will be with me and Jesus in Heaven one day! I'm so glad God gave me and my husband our son for us to raise on this side of Heaven! 😊
Your channel is such a blessing and encouragement! It's so awesome how God works in each of His children. It's so amazing when your kids choose to make Christ their Lord. 🥰
❤ Thank you boys for giving us a glimpse of your lives and sharing incredible news! What a beautiful moment for Weston to be able to baptize them. A core memory shared forever!
Hi again! I'm excited for your family and church camp! A couple weeks ago I helped at ours and was so pleased to volunteer, exhausted but so happy for all the children loving their week of camp! When you finally told us about your sons asking to be baptized, it also brought tears to my eyes. It reminded me of when son did as well. Many Many blessings! ❤😂❤
I am not a religious person but I love your channel, your vídeos , your Family and I share your joy from the bottom of my heart. Congratulations on this new chapter of their life!
Praise God for your boys’ decision to take the next step in their faith walk with God by getting baptized!! I am rejoicing with your family, Natalie!!❤️🙏🏼
I know you're so proud of your boys and how special it is that Weston can baptize them. I have followed you since the boys were born and love seeing God's plan work out in your lives. Enjoy that beautiful, special day.
Not me crying over the boys' baptism like I know them. 😭 I've watched since they were in your belly, and as a believer in general it's worth rejoicing over!
Awww - how amazing!!! God is so good all the time. Having your children desire to be Babtized is such an all encompasing joy. I am sure it was a remarkable experience. I am sure it was!!! Thx for sharing this special event with us!
Thank you for sharing this with us! I live how transparent you are about your faith in Jesus and taking time to explain that baptism is an outward showing after a changed heart. ❤ I still remember my baptism it was truly special.
Brought tears to my eyes with the announcement of the boys’ baptism. I’m so happy for their decision. It’s a life changing moment. And thank you for your willingness to share Jesus on your channel. Such a blessing ❤❤❤❤
I am so excited that the boys are getting baptized. We also spent 2 weeks at church camp as a family serving through music and preaching. It is always a breath of fresh air to watch your videos.
So sweet🤍 How awesome that you all got to experience Church camp together this year. And so amazing that the boys decided to be baptized on their own! I was baptized recently as well and it was so special. I love that Weston was able to baptize them! While having my Dad (who is a Pastor at another local Church) baptize me was not an option, I was able to have him there in the water with me as a “water witness” and it was so beautiful! Congratulations to all of you, and thank you for sharing that light on your platforms! Reminds me of Psalm 112:1-9, what a blessing to have generational blessing in your lives🤍🥰
Thank you so very much for sharing your exciting news with us. I am so proud of them. This is a huge step for them. I felt like a proud grandma. I started to cry happy tears with the news. And as for that puppy I am in love 🥰
Thank-you for sharing your faith on your channel. Congratulations to all of you ! You have been such a blessing in our family’s life. Praise to the Lord.
Congratulations on the baptizing of your boys! I was crying when you told us all. It's so nice your husband can do it this for them! Thank you for sharing this special tìme with all of us! God Bless you & your family! Opie is so cute & a love! He's a very precious furbaby! Have fun on your trip. Take care! Love & Hugs! ♥️😉🫂🦋✨️🐾🧶🧵🪡📓✏️🌹✨️
God's blessings to you and your family Natalie. I love watching your channel and love that you are so open about your faith. ❤ Thanks for sharing the joy of baptism with us!
Wonderful to hear about the baptisms! In my faith tradition (grew up Lutheran, now Catholic), we baptize infants, but it’s also so special to see those from other traditions make that choice as older children or adults. Blessings to your family!
I’m a Catholic convert, too! I feel like we get the same beautiful moment when we watch our kids get confirmed. Two out of five of mine have been so far. 🥹
Praise God, praise God!! Watching our children grow in their walk with the Lord is moving! I love being used for my babies just like God is using you and your husband for your children.
Hearing about your boys made me tear up! I’ve been following you for years now and have always loved your videos! I’m a pastors kid and I was baptized at 10 years old and my parents taught me and but let me make the choice for myself. Now im 30 with two little girls of my own trying to teach them and show them Gods love and read the bible with them and can’t wait for the day they too will be baptized! Your videos are always such an encouragement to me and relax me and also on days where I just don’t want to clean you motivate me! So excited for your family!!! ❤
What wonderful news, thank you (and Liam and Judah!) for allowing us to share your joy. I remember my own baptism clearly - I was younger than the boys, and my dad was also the one to baptize me alongside our pastor.
Usually I take a seat and relax when I watch your videos, but today I actually turned this on t have something in the background while cleaning. Thank you for inviting us everytime to join you or take a break and watch someone else do the work :)
I'm in LOVE with Opie. Thank you for introducing me to Sundays for dogs. I'll definitely look into it. I hope. Opie knows that he's just "visiting" his previous home while you're gone.
The camp would have been so much joy. I remember going on youth camps and though a teenager, I remember how helpful the adults volunteers were and the fun they had ❤
Congratulations to your boys on their decision to make their faith in Jesus public. What a special time for you and Weston!!❤ A joy like no other when our children choose Christ for themselves and want to follow after Him. We are traveling from here in western WA to OR with my husband's family next week for our annual family vacation. We, too, love to do a Costco shopping trip to get the road trip snacks as part of the kick off to vacation. 😊 Loved that romper as a swimsuit!! Going to look into that for myself. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful week!
I've not watched your videos in many many years maybe 6 or 7 (no reason life just got busy and RU-vid wasn't something I found time for) I now have my very own Liam who is almost 5. I can't believe how big your boys have got. Wishing you all the best 🫶🏼
I am so excited for your beautiful family. Congratulations on your boys getting baptized! My 7 year old son is getting baptized this month and he is so excited so showing him your boys are getting baptized made him even more excited to see other wonderful children getting baptized. May the Lord continue to bless your beautiful family.
We also serve together at our church camp as a family ❤. It wouldn’t be summer without it. What great news about your boys commitment to Christ! Praise God!
I love seeing your daily enjoying things right here in my beck of the woods! ❤ That camp looks beautiful and it’s such a blessing that you all get to go together!!
Awe what sweet news!! This had me crying! I just recently was baptized at 34 years old on the north shore of Oahu, and I know how much it has meant to me. Praying your boys had an unforgettable day!
Congratulations to your boys 🎉❤ so beautiful ! I went to church camp when I was a kid, and these videos give me all the nostalgia, I hope you have fun!!!
We're going to Disneyland for the first time with our family and we're SO EXCITED!! 🎉 Congratulations to you guys for Liam and Judah's baptism! 🥰 I'm so proud of them and how special that Wesson gets to baptize them! As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, we get baptized at the age of 8, though it can happen any time after that. It's just the minimum age. But, the thing we do as well after a certain age is enter our temples as recommend holding members at the age of 11/12 and anytime after the age of 18. (A recommend is basically a pass that is given by our church leader saying that we are considered worthy to enter our most holy space to perform work for ancestors who didn't receive the Gospel of Jesus Christ while on earth.) I love what you shared in your video today about them coming to Christ on their own! That is so beautiful! I'm so proud of them! 🥰
I love that Weston is baptizing your boys!! My son-in-law baptized his three boys and it was such a blessing!! My oldest grandson that we are going to visit in Washington actually works for Youth for Christ there so that is our upcoming trip as well as going to see another grandson and his wife in Texas and are excited to see what they are doing in their church!! So like you we have 2 trips back to back as well and we feel so blessed to have grandsons and wives that like spending time with us as adults!!! Hope you had a wonderful 2 trips
Woohoo, welcome to the eternal family, boys! Hope you all had amazing trips! We are traveling around the PNW this summer, then will head to Maine to see Fall for the first time and let Winter chase us back to Florida!
I'm so happy to come across a youtuber like you who shares the same beliefs as we do. I've been a silent follower and I just know I have to comment to this. I'm just so happy for your kids and all that you do with your family. I know as you celebrate the heavens rejoice!
Such an exciting announcement! In our home (and church) there isn’t an age either. My oldest waited until his was 14, my middle decided at 9 and now my youngest 7 (twins) have been asking about it. We definitely do not force it and let it happen organically. So special that both of the boys and your husband were all part of it!
So exciting that your boys decided to be baptized! I love that my own children chose when they were ready to be baptized. My parents baptized me as a baby. At age 20, I wanted to be baptized by immersion. What an amazing experience! I love that faith and learning...just keeps growing and growing. Congrats!! Big Day! 💜🙏
Yahoo!!! Praise the Lord!!! I am so happy for your boys and I pray a blessing on their futures. I loved seeing glimpses of your youth camp! We attended a youth camp that looks similar at Estes Park in Colorado. As a parent I say thank you for serving other kids in this way!
Praise the Lord!!! This brought tears to my eyes. I had the honor of baptizing my nieces and my husband baptized my nephew, their brother. It is so special to see the next generation follow Jesus and commit their lives to Him.
