8-13-2000  Annabel Ruth Welcomed Into The Church
The combined Needham / Sengstock families gathered at St. John Neumann Church to celebrate the baptism of 2 month old Annabel.  She and four other babies were blessed, prayed over, sprinkled, and annointed amidst a throng of family and friends.  Although she was the smallest of the baptized, she had the most hair.

The celebration moved to Greg and Jill's St. Charles home for a delightful luncheon.  The weather cooperated and everyone had a wonderful time.  All 11 of Annabel's Aunts and Uncles, her three cousins, and all four Grandparents gathered from Michigan, Ohio, Florida and Illinois to observe the occasion.  John Needham's cousin Sally Grossman from Oak Park and Jill Sengstock's cousin John and Jill Queffelic with daughter Paige from Carol Stream were in attendance also.  Annabel was an angel throughout the day.
