Thank you, God, for calling these little ones to your Kingdom through the holy waters of Baptism:
198) Aria Felise (During attendance, I called this baby's name last, but she was the first to be presented to me for Baptism, so I said, "The last shall be first."
199) Kaleb Alexander (The godfather spoke to me afterwards, and I gave him and his fiancee a blessing in front of the altar.)
200) Amelia
201) Valerie (newborn)
202) Mona Penelope
203) Zachary Elias
204) Kataleya Klaire
205) Alexandra
206) Isaiah Jude (I called the baby "Prophet and Apostle" since he carries the name of the Prophet Isaiah and the Apostle St. Jude Thaddeus. Dad told me he himself was named after another person in the Bible, Joshua, and I told him my favorite passage from the Book of Joshua was, "As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.")
207) Tahlia Luna (The godfather, Michael, read from the First Letter of Peter. And we did this to the memory of my former student of mine, Marrianne, his sister, who was killed many years ago.)
208) Liam (toddler for whom I gave extra chrism)
209) Brady Angelo
210) Anastasia
