MYSTERY OF BAPTISM

Posted by william on Jun 7th, 2008

They had a baptism at my church a recent Sunday morning, during the homily time. The baby was nice and quiet. But other kids in the congregation continually cried and howled. Or maybe it was devils.

Alternate explanation: the howlers didn’t like all that attention going to some other kid.

Other speculation: the baby being baptized was influenced in some way, e.g., by the Holy Spirit,  that forestalled any crying.
