A hymn mai he sung. The candidate candidates and sponsors (and family families; gather with the minister in the nave. P In the name of the Father and of the + Son and of the Holy Spirit. @ Amen ©. The minister addresses the baptismal group and the congregation. P Our Lord commanded Baptism, saying to his disciples in the last chapter of Matthew: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age.” The holy apostles of the Lord have written: “The promise is for you and your children,” and: “Baptism now saves you.” We also learn from the Word of God that we all are conceived and born sinful and are in need of forgiveness. We would be lost forever unless delivered from sin, death, and everlasting condemnation. But the Father of all mercy and grace has sent his Son Jesus Christ, who atoned for the sin of the whole world that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 3. The minister turns to the candidate: candidates to be hapuzed. P Receive the sign of the holy cross both upon your forehead + and upon your heart + to mark you as one redeemed by Christ the crucified.
