Welcome Child of God

         Sunday was a very special day for a very special baby boy.  Evan was welcomed into God family at Immaculate Conception church in Carthage. 

        He followed in the steps of Jesus who was baptized in the Jordan by his cousin John.  Although Jesus did not have the stain of original sin, Evan's soul was wiped clean and is now shining brightly white.

 

         Evan was wide awake and alert the whole time.  He listened to Father Tony and seemed to understand the importance of what was happening.







       

        I baptize you in the name of the Father...and of the Son...and of the Holy Spirit....Amen.
