Baptism

On Saturday, June 20th, Mathieu was baptised. Father Matt performed the ceremony. He is an old friend of Sue's and was also the one to marry us. If you ask anyone that was present, they would say the baptism was an intimate and meaningful time together. There were about 30 people, almost all family. That was part of the beauty of it. Not only were these people all present at our wedding, but they have been a major part of Sue's life since she was born, and they will all know Mathieu his whole life as well. Also, Father Matt explained the meaning behind each part of the baptism ceremony. It was not just a ritual; it was a beautiful time where everyone was focused on Mathieu and how God will be with him in his life. In the picture is Mathieu's Godparents: Uncle Paul Hebert and cousin Amie Richard.
