Sis. Hannah, It has been a great pleasure for all of us here to watch you grow up in this Sunday school. We have all come to know you as a very kind and, at times, a very soft-spoken person. However, your conduct as a young person, your confession of faith, and your obedience to God through baptism into a new life (a life you are willing to give to God) have spoken volumes to convince us all that your parents named you well. We realize we must remain in God’s favor in order to receive eternal life, and we pray that you will always remain in His favor.
It is my privilege and great pleasure to represent the brothers and sisters of this ecclesia, as well as all Christadelphians worldwide who meet on the basis of the Birmingham Amended Statement of Faith, in offering you the “right hand of fellowship”.
Always seek out your new family in times of your own need and be ready to help when others need you. Remember this is a very imperfect family. By joining us, you have helped us take one more step toward a more perfect family, in the glory to God.
May God bless you and keep you! Remember to be strong and of a good courage, just as your father reminded you yesterday. May your light so shine that men may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
