A Baptism Prayer

Thank you, Lord,
for showing us that
the Gospel still speaks,
that the Spirit still calls,
and that people still respond,

Today, it is one who,
by the act of baptism,
calls us to recover
the excitement and hope
of our first calling.

As her faith grows,
so may ours also.

We can only dream of what
you have in store for her,
may the Church have the wisdom
to at least not get in the way.

Amen
