baptism

Looking ahead now to Sunday and the second baptismal service this autumn. To help in the preparation of those being baptised I provide them with a series of daily readings for the days leading up to the Sunday. The idea and plan is one suggested during my College days by my late College Principal, the Revd R.E.O White. To his words I have added the prayer:

To the Creator
Who give life
We offer our life.

To the Saviour
Who gives love
We offer ourselves in love

To the Holy Spirit
Who gives himself
We ask to be filled.

In the power, peace and presence
of Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
we come to be baptized.




Only caught the last minutes of yesterday's Old Firm derby. Good result :-))
