The Rambling Rector

With Fr. Eric Zolner

Children, Cups, and Fellowship

What do these three things have in common?  I’ll admit, not much.  But they are all practical issues we are dealing with All Saints.  So rather than inundating you with countless emails, I thought I would just post it all to my blog so that everyone is aware of what is going on.

Praying for our Children

Picture
When a child is baptized in the Anglican Church, his or her parents and godparents make certain promises on the child’s behalf.  However, they are not the only ones assuming a responsibility.  At one point, the celebrant asks the congregation, “Will you who witness these vows do all in your power to support these persons in their life in Christ?”  Our response is a resounding, “We will.”  ​

It is a wonderful liturgical expression of how the church is a community of people who live out their Christian faith together.  But as with everything in the liturgy, it needs to have an expression outside of the liturgy as well.  We must ask ourselves, how can we support these children as they grow and mature in their Christian faith?
