Wednesday 9:30 Mass: Baptism

 

I attended the 9:30 AM Mass. It was the feast of the Anunciation.

Afterwards, I and two others were conditionally baptized.

The baptisms were done in the basement of Saint Augustine’s.

The baptism rite was conducted by Fsther John.

Music from an organ upstairs made the rite all the more stirring.

As my head was stuck over the font, and the water was being poured on my head,I felt a profound sense of focus and serenity.

Here is a photo of an Andis whose sins have been wiped away.

I joked that that state of sinlessness would last until I got into traffic.
