First thing that Tisha noticed in this new town is a beautiful Church. After she stared a couple of minutes at this beauty she dicides to go in and say a pray.
Entering, she noticed two mens talking. One of them seems to be priest.
Maybe it's confessional time, she thinks. She would like to go and confess too but as she can't remember anything about her what she could confess? She pouts a little about this situation then silently says a pray.

Gvu saw a beautiful lady entered in the Church. He had never seen her before. He felt a little embarrassed, becouse the girl was prayig...and he couldn't pray...he couldn't do anything, he wasn't babtized yet.

"Is perhaps that lady already babtized? Could be her my Godmother?" Gvu asked whispering to the priest.

Roberto also saw the beautifull lady entering the church and starting her prayer.
When he heard the question of GVU, he answerd.

I don't know, my friend, for I haven't seen her before.
maybe she comes from France and was babtized there.
We should ask her.........

Patiently Roberto waited untill the woman finished her prayer.

After she finish her pray, Tisha thinks to go and ask for baptism because it's frustrating to come and sneak into the Church to say a pray and can't be able to come when there are ceremonies.
She wouldn't want to disturb the two mens from their discussion so she decide that is better to wait outside. Just when she prepares to leave she sees the two mens looking at her. Maybe I could take this opportunity and go talk to the priest, explain my situation she thinks and walks to them meanwhile she was staring at the inside part of the Church architecture.
When she's in front of them her heart beats speeds up by emotions and shy starts to speak:
Good day gentlemans, my name is Tisha.
I just arrived here and I am searching for my family, if I have one ...I am hoping they will find me because I can't remember anything about them.
The reason I came is that I would like to ask for baptism, if it's possible. I have a feeling that I am not baptized even if I can't remember that for sure, my heart tells me that.
Full of faith she wait the answer.

(ooc: i was moved from france, asked the baptism there but didn't received it because i couldn't rp in french)

Then Roberto saw the young woman comming towards them. She introduced herself as Tisha and she totld them that she wanted to be babtized.
So she couldn't be the godmother of GVU.

Welcome, lady Tisha.
Maybe you want to get babtised together with this gentleman over here.
I was just starting the ceremony, so if you want, you can join us.

Yes, that's great, thank you very much!
Then she stared to see what will happen next.

Roberto saw the happienes in Tisha's eyes. It was always a joy to make someone happy with the unexpected. So with a cheerfull voice he spoke to her....

Well, let us begin the ceremony

Father Roberto walked with great joy to the baptismal font. The young lady and man followed him.

Before this woman and man is to be baptized, let we, who have already entered the Divine Grace recite together the Holy Creed:

(any who have already received baptism are welcome to join in.)

We believe in one Lord,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is seen and unseen.

We believe in the Pascal Lamb,
the only Son of the Lord,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.

We believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.

We believe in one holy, sacred and divine Church of Saint George.

We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come.

AMEN.

After he had sung the Creed, he Looked at the young woman and man before him. Father Roberto asked in a serious tone

I present to this congregation Tisha and Gvu.
They have come here to ask for forgiveness of their sins, to accept the Divine Grace, and to enter into our Holy Communion through baptism.
As is spoken by the apostle St. Matthew in his gospel;

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

Now it is time for you to speak your vows before those gathered and before the Lord.
Listen carefully an answer the following questions seperately and honestly.

Roberto took the note with the vows and read them out loud

Quote :: Do you reject the devil and all rebellion against the Lord as Saint George did?

Do you renounce the deceit and corruption of evil as Saint George did?

Do you repent of the sins that separate us from the Lord and neighbor as Saint George did?

Do you turn to the Holy Pascal Lamb as Saviour as Saint George did?

Do you submit to the Holy Pascal Lamb as Lord as Saint George did?

Do you come to the Holy Pascal Lamb, the way, the truth and the life as Saint George did?

Do you wish to join the Holy Saint George’s Church?

Listens carefuly to Father's words. When the time for her to speak comes she tries to hide the emotions and speak clear:

"Do you reject the devil and all rebellion against the Lord as Saint George did?"
Yes, I reject them.
"Do you renounce the deceit and corruption of evil as Saint George did?"
Yes, I renounce them.
"Do you repent of the sins that separate us from the Lord and neighbor as Saint George did?"
Yes, I repent.
"Do you turn to the Holy Pascal Lamb as Saviour as Saint George did?"
Yes, I'll turn to the Holy Pascal Lamb.
"Do you submit to the Holy Pascal Lamb as Lord as Saint George did?"
Yes, I'll submit to the Holy Pascal Lamb.
"Do you come to the Holy Pascal Lamb, the way, the truth and the life as Saint George did?"
Yes, I come to the Holy Pascla Lamb, the way, the truth and the life!
"Do you wish to join the Holy Saint George’s Church?"
Yes, I wish to join the Holy Saint George's Church.

After she spook the vows, Roberto laid his hand on her head and spoke.

IN NOMINE PATRIS, ET FILII, ET SPIRITUS SANCTI.
I, Roberto, baptise you Tisha, in the name of our most Sacred Church of Saint George.
May almighty Lord who has given you the desire to follow the Holy Pascal Lamb give you the strength to continue in the way.

He Sprinkles some holy water on Tisha's head.

Then he looked at Vgu, who stood next to her, ready to say the vows.
Or was he having second thoughts?

Feeling better already, Tisha makes a thankfull sign to the Father Roberto then steps back to make room for Gvu to step aside and receive the baptism.

Then, it looked like GVU had second thoughts, so Father Roberto, ended the ceremony.

May you all go in peace, and feel the love of the Lord in your hearts.

He congratulate Tisha and prayed for GVU that he would come to his sensen and tried it another time.

ooc: I'll finish this one, so we can start a new one. Wink

Ballantine was returning home after a hard day's work, when suddently he heard the church's bells ringing in an unusual way.
Then he went into the church, and saw Father Roberto, who was speaking loudly near the altar.

Faithfull people of London.
I call upon you.

Who ever seeks redemption, come foreward.

Andrew's eyes lit up. He then approached the altar.

My name is Andrew Ballantine, Father, and I want to be baptized.

ORP: IG name: Ballantine

Soon after the bells had rung and he had spoken the words, the first man enterd the church.
He recognized his face, for he had spoken to him earlier in his office.

It was snowy and cold. It was really cold. Gweddry got up early, he dressed up quickly, and went to the Parochial Church. He wanted to be baptised, so he written to the Bishop who told him a baptism ceremony was going to start in the St Bartholomew Church... Gweddry ridded his horse and in a few minutes he arrived at the Church. He heard more voices inside it, and he went near the other people. A lady talked to a man with priestclothes, and Gweddry deduced that man was Father Robert...

Slowly, he talked to him:

-Father, I'm Gweddry. I want to be baptised and integrate the community of believers..

Soon after that, two more people came in.
Roberto greeted them warmly

Welcome miss Newheaven and sir Gweddry.
I'm very glad to know you want to join our Holy Church.

You can take place here, the ceremony will start in a moment.
Then, all off you will be babtised.
