September Birthdays

The youth in CERC often celebrate birthdays together.  A young person's friends will bake a cake and bring it to church or to another activity for a celebration.  That happened a few times this month.

First was the birthday of Elena, the one holding the baby.

Emily's birthday was September 21, and one of the young women from church 

baked a cake for her the previous Sunday.  Here she is with Charis, Eliana, and Klaire.

The day after Emily's birthday, Roman Lehnert had his first birthday.  His parents gave him a party at an indoor playground not far from our place.

There were at least two other girls, Zi Hui and Nichelle, who also had birthdays this month, but I don't have pictures of their celebrations with their church friends.  May God bless each one of these children and young people in the coming year!
