Our new member of the Church!


On Sunday, November 8th, Jude Michael was baptized. It was a wonderful mass at the Cathedral and we had a nice meal afterward. Jude did not make a peep while the priest poured water on his hair; Faustina, however, was taken behind the altar by Mike in the middle of it because she was making a fuss and then she wandered back while we were all still standing around the baptismal fountain! Since Jude was baptized in the middle of mass, there were a couple hundred eyes watching Faustina make her debut. People said it was humorous, and luckily she was not too disruptive. John grabbed her as she was walking around and she was walking around. Jude is fortunate to have John and Mary Lee as his godparents. We were thrilled that Great Grandma Mary was in town (in fact, Mike organized his baptism around her visit) to celebrate with us. We missed Grandpa Lee since he was up north deer hunting; and, of course, no occasion is the same without Grandma Lee. We have confidence that she was rejoicing with us from above.
