NEW CHILD WELCOMING CEREMONY
Our celebration begins with a beautiful poem and Jesus' lesson on blessing children from The Gospel of Mark. We talk about the importance of parenthood. Promises are made about setting good examples and providing guidance for the child. You may appoint Godparents. Others may be invited to participate.
We pray for the family, and some choose anointing the child's head with the sign of the cross (with water from The Jordan River where Jesus Himself was baptized by immersion).
In any case, the ceremony culminates with the parents pronouncing the name that will be with this child for a lifetime. It is truly worth celebrating life!
This service is available any day at any location or host it at Chapel Bellavista (up to 50 people), all by appointment.
