CATCHING UP: Lennon Cox is baptized

On Friday, July 8, 2022, Lennon Cox, daughter of David and Leigh Cox stepped into the baptismal font at the Bloomington Stake Center to receive this sacred covenant from her Uncle Cade Stephens, who flew in for this special occasion from the Tri-City area in Washington State.  Lennon was then confirmed by her Grandpa Larry Stephens – both ordinances witnessed by her Dad and her other Grandpa David Cox.

Lennon, who is named for one of two singing sisters in “Nashville,” one of her mom’s favorite TV shows, is a 3^rd grader at Bloomington Elementary School.  She loves school but after school and in the summer months, she also enjoys cheer and tumbling, drawing and art classes and is a fashionista who loves playing golf with her dad and brothers.

 

President Lorenzo Snow taught us, “To obtain religion which will save us in the presence of God, we must obtain the Holy Ghost, and in order to obtain the Holy Ghost, we must believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, then repent of our sins … that is, forsake them, then go forward and be immersed in water for the remission of sins, then receive the laying on of hands.” 

 

Lennon, every member of this Church has made the same covenant you have made and we are ready to help you keep the commandments of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
