Mercy's Baptism

We have a new sister added to the Book of Life! Mercy Huff was baptized Tuesday night at the Rondorf's home. And what an amazing new sister we have!

I remember the first time I met Mercy: She and her family just moved in across the street and had a little boy. She had just accedientaly cut her elbow in the bedroom, but all her first aid stuff was still packed away. So I ran back home, grabbed some bandaids and wipes, and rushed back to clean her elbow and patch it up. Only AFTER I put the bandaid on did I think to ask her name; Mercy. "How ironic," I thought.

Well, as the weeks went on, we got to know Mercy and her family VERY well. She would come over to Bible Talks and make the most amazing lasagna I've ever had. Before she even began studying the Bible, she would bring visitors; her daughter, daughter's boyfriend, and EVEN daughter's boyfriends' mother.

As we got to know her more and more, it was obvious that she has a huge heart for others. When my medical condition got worse, she made me dinner and brought it over. When my wife was sick, she brough soup and juice. And no matter what is going on in her life, she ALWAYS has a smile and warm hug.

I am very blessed to know her and to witness her baptism.
