BAPTISM- A TIME TO REFLECT ABOUT ONE'S FAITH

There is nothing like a child's baptism to remind one of faith. Christian faith had its struggles throughout history. The Reformation with some separating from the Catholic Church to form new Protestant sects. So a baby's baptism at the Aurora United Church was a wonderful family event. It is a church with its own struggles. It is housed in Trinity Anglican Church now as the original heritage building had a fire in 2015. They will rebuild. All the churches in Aurora are on Victoria Street- an old part of the town. So to see the littlest grandson baptized and to be part of Christian faith was a powerful and humbling day. The United Church is one of many to help Syrian refugees resettle in Canada. Reaching out to other faith communities with care and compassion! To reconnect through family and grandchildren!

  1. it's interesting how a baptism of a child brings a family closer together, regardless of how faithful some members are and their various denominations ...
