This morning I am heading north to New Hampshire to baptize my nephew Jonah Daniel Kirby. Just look at that smile! The baptism will take place at Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal Church in Hampton tomorrow, on the feast of the Baptism of the Lord.
Jonah has a big brother, Michael Colin, 4, and a big sister, Mary Elizabeth, 2. Their baby brother's baptism should prove to be a fascinating event for them. More on the baptism, with photos, will follow.
His Excellency, the Bishop of the Diocese of Tulsa, Oklahoma has given
Father Mark a special mandate to live in adoration before the Most
Blessed Sacrament, in a spirit of thanksgiving and intercession, that he
might make reparation before the Eucharistic Face of Jesus for all his
brothers in Holy Orders. At the same time, he is available to the
priests and deacons of the Diocese for spiritual and sacramental
support in their pursuit of holiness.
