Christening Wishes


This morning in the presence of God, a beautiful little girl shall be welcomed into the world. I shall be among her family and friends, to witness the joy and pride in her parents eyes and she is blessed in Baptism. As I am not a Minister of Religion I won't be conducting this wonderful ceremony, however I shall be sharing a few words of love.

The Further Benefits of Wisdom
Proverbs 3:1-4

My child, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart; for they will prolong your life for many years and bring you prosperity. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them to your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favour and a good name, in the sight of God and man.

Jasmine, my Christening wish to you is to walk through life with the belief, that you are a truly beautiful child. May your heart rejoice in love; may faith and friendship give you strength in times of need; may wisdom and courage lead you to greatness and may Christianity, compassion and kindness be the essence of your every day.
