Memories!  I've been a few places, I've attended a few events.  As soon as saw a little program for Quinten Cole M.'s baptism, I had to wonder who he was.  Most probably he and his family moved on; I live in the vicinity of the largest Air Force Base in the world.  People come and go constantly; some of them return to retire, here!

 It is sort of an obligation, as well as an invitation to attend a baptismal event!  If the family's family lives a far distance from Fort Walton Beach Florida, it is nice to fill the chairs and in many cases, a church is a kind of a family.  In addition, you get a free review of other baptisms from your own past.  Children can be baptized at the age of 8, and as many of you know, children are pure, innocent, teachable.  It is customary to not only print a little program for the occasion, but sometimes a parent or grandparent might give the child their first set of scriptures or some other gift.  Favorite children's songs or hymns often serve as the program's welcome and benediction.  So, Quinten Cole M., where ever you are, I hope that since (October 11, 1998) baptism, that you are on the covenant path still, healthy and happy, as well!
