Baptism Pictures

Yena's baptism was also the Feast Day of the Sto Nino, so all the while i thought there will be lots of tots for baptism that same day. So right after the mass, we hurried back to the church in a swift. Luckily there were only ten of them in line for baptism so i knew that the ceremony would be quick. The seminar which took about 30 minutes was followed by the 20 minutes baptism ritual.

The ritual started with the parents making the sign of the cross at the forehead, then followed by the godparents..

Then the pouring of the Holy Water...

Followed by the Holy Oil..

Putting on of the white hat right after..

And finally, lighting of the candles while praying the Lord's Prayer.

Oh yeah.. lots of picture taking too!
