Since there is a lot of talk of baptism I was wondering if any of you were using a verse for the invitations? I would like to add one but haven't found one I like. I am planning on making the invitations. Thanks for your help.
We didn't use a bible verse, but ours said "Our precious gift from Heaven will be welcomed into God's family. Please join us in celebrating the baptism of our daughter Ellinor Lillian D..."
Re: Baptism Verse for Invitation
What about the one where Jesus says, "Let the little children come to me, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven". I think it's in Matthew.
Someone else suggested that one too. I think I might use that one. Thanks!
My favorite is 1 Samuel 1:27, I prayed for this child and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him.
Although not really sure its right for a baptism invite.
I googled and found a few others.
"Jesus answered: Amen, amen I say to you, unless a man be born again of water and the Holy spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God." John 3:5
"And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them." Mark 10:16 (I like this one)Sarah - 12/23/2008

"I say embrace the total geek in yourself and just enjoy it. Life is too short to be cool." - Shirley Manson, Garbage
Thanks for all the ideas!
