Sage is Baptized

Sage Wilkes, stepped into the waters of baptism on Friday, October 1, holding the hand of her father Robert Wilkes who performed the baptismal ordinance after which her Grandpa Hans Wilkes confirmed her.

Through her baptism, this beautiful 8-year-old, covenants - as do all members of Church - to abide by the laws and requirements of the new and everlasting covenant and “to come into the fold of God” - that is, to become the newest member of the Church of Jesus Christ - and to “serve God and keep his commandments” throughout her lifetime.

Sage, the 4th of Rob and Chardell’s 5 children, is in 2nd grade at George Washington Academy. She LOVES to sing and memorizes the lyrics to songs she likes then sings them all day long. She has an amazing spirit. She's been anxiously awaiting her baptism for years and especially looks forward to being an activity day girl.
