Gurduiala Family Grows
Congratulations to the Gurduiala and Newman families on this wonderful news.
A little bundle of joy arrived at the home of George and Shelley on Wednesday the 15th January 2020. How thrilling must it have been for these parents when God’s precious gift entered their family!
We pray the Lord will richly bless George and Shelley with wisdom and knowledge, as they bring up little Eva Victoria to honor and love her Creator!
Baby Boy Arrival
It is with joyful hearts that we wish to congratulate the Gules and Dumitru families on the arrival of Baby Jaxson Daniel. Johnny and Denise Gules were so looking forward to this little boy, and they were delighted to announce his arrival on the 6th February.
Sabbath 22nd February was a special day at Schofields Church, when baby Jaxson was dedicated to the Lord. He was brought to the front by his parents, and Brother Peter Lausevic took him in his arms, and prayed for God to care for Jaxson and to influence his life in the right direction.
We pray God will give you knowledge to raise Jaxson to His honour and glory, that he may learn to be an obedient child as per instruction found in Colossians 3:20, “Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.”
Baby Dedications—Kneebone and Robles Families
On Sabbath 7th March many of the church brethren, visitors and friends witnessed the parents of Hiram Joseph, and Priscilla bringing their children to the front and having them presented before the Lord. As Elder Jacques Payet held Hiram and prayed for each of the children and for their parents, the congregation also bowed their heads in silent prayer. It was a very blessed day for all who were present at Guildford Church.
God entrusts parents with a very important work; firstly, to know Him and to love Him with all their hearts and soul; and then to diligently teach this to their children while they are growing up. This work is of such great value. The results will be seen throughout eternity. Children here are only on loan to parents; they belong to God. May He continue to guide each parent in this solemn work that has been assigned to them. “And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.” Ephesians 6:4.
“There is no higher trust than that committed to fathers and mothers in the care and training of their children. Parents have to do with the very foundations of habit and character. By their example and teaching the future of their children is largely decided.” Prophets and Kings, p. 245.
