Baptism Day, November 7, 2004
We got up at 7 o’clock, as usual. The first thing my wife did was to pump milk for Andrew. We planned to go to Nina’s at 10.30 am so everything had to be done quickly. Bathing Andrew, my telephone rang. Cynthia’s mom called, saying that she would drop by to drop presents for both Marco and Andrew. Cynthia is my wife’s friend who is staying in the USA. It’s so kind of her giving presents from far away.
At ten something, we were ready to go. It took us about an hour to reach Pondok Indah. There were still traffic jams on Sunday morning.
We had our lunch there. A lot of guests coming including nuns. After lunch, at about 2 pm, we headed to St. Stephanus church. It took us only about 10 minutes to reach the church. The church was still occupied by those who were rehearsing for first communion. After waiting for about half an hour, the sacrament of baptism began.
Three babies’ve been baptized. They are officially members of Catholic church. It’s their parent’s duty to raise them in a good Catholic family. Their next step is First Communion where they can learn and understand more. Time flies and without our realizing, our babies will grow.
Thank You God for everything.
