We had a very special Memorial Day weekend, as Sylvan was baptized on May 24th at The New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, where we are members. In Presbyterian theology, infant baptism symbolizes the love by which God reaches out to us, even when we are young. That day was also Pentecost Sunday, a day of celebrating the Holy Spirit and historically a day for baptisms. The Spirit was certainly present with us on this special day, surrounded by family and friends who love our son! His Godparents are really the whole congregation, people who have made some of the most important promises they will ever make: to support Sylvan as he grows and matures. We are grateful for them!
