On August 8, 2026, family, friends, and members of the Hot Springs Seventh-Day Adventist Church community gathered to witness and celebrate the joyous baptism of Ethan Neuharth.

The sacred ceremony was held outdoors, utilizing the irrigation ditch on the farm of Sam and Diana Roosma. Pastor Denny Evans officiated the ceremony, welcoming Ethan into the Christian faith with water and prayer.

Surrounded by the beauty of nature and loved ones, the service was a meaningful expression of faith, hope, and community. Becky Neuharth, Ethan’s older sister, was baptized in the same manner on July 26, 2025. Her ceremony was officiated by her uncle, Pastor Phillip Neuharth.

A reception followed at the church, where guests joined the family in fellowship and celebration.

Ethan and Becky Neuharth’s family extend their heartfelt gratitude to all who attended and supported them in this milestone spiritual journey.

"For we were buried therefore with Him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life" (Romans 6:4).
