Dad's Ordination Service

My dad was ordained as a deacon this past Sunday morning. Brant and I had already scheduled our trip when they set the date for the ordination service. We decided to come back a little early and surprise my dad for his ordination. It was a really neat service. I am so proud of my dad and the other 2 men that were ordained. They will do a great service for the Lord.

My dad is giving his testimony while my mom stands by for moral support.

The men were honored by giving a Bible.

This is the "laying on of the hands". It is a process where the other deacons and pastors come by individually and say a prayer over each man. It is a very touching process to watch.
