After a long wait of 4 months, JS and I finally decided that it's time to bring baby Zach to the house of Lord. We have always envied parents who brought their babies to the church service and have dreamt of bringing baby Zach along with us on one of these days when he becomes much older. And yesterday was the day. JS and I agreed that baby Zach is all ready to attend church. So under the advice of our cell group members, we brought baby Zach along to the service instead of putting him in the church nursery. Of course, I felt more at ease with Zach by my side as I can't bear to leave in the care of 'strangers'...
JS carried baby Zach in his arms throughout the 40 minutes of worship and communion service. Other than being shocked at the great number of people and the loud music, Zach was totally at ease and comfortable. In fact, he was more busy suckling his fingers than anything else. At one point, when pastor Dominic invited first time visitor to stand up, I carried baby Zach high up in the sky to acknowledge that it was his first time in the house of Lord. After the communion service, Zach was beginning to feel sleepy and that was when he began to make noises to 'indicate' that he wants to sleep. So quietly, I brought him to the nursing room to nurse him to sleep. And after which, we stayed inside the room till the end of the service.
And the pictures above are taken with our cell group members after the church service. Most importantly, Mummy prays that baby Zach will grow spiritually & strongly in God. AMEN!
