Baptism Day for Ben
What a weekend! We got to have our family here and spend lots of time together celebrating (and eating!) for Ben's baptism. It was truly a great time to gather and witness as Ben was marked sealed by the waters of baptism and marked as Christ's own forever.
Ben did fairly well....he grumbled through the beginning portion of the baptism as we gathered around the font, as his morning nap was nearing. When Rector George scooped him up, he seemed to take note that this was a time for quiet and patiently let George put the water on his head and bless him. The same thing happened when the sign of the cross was made on his forehead.
Some pictures of Ben's big day...
