“Sacrament Series 04: Baptism and Prayers” / 11 / Thursdays at Evangelismos Orthodox Church

Baptism is the gateway to the heavenly realm. Christ teaches and guides us to love in fullness and to live a calm and peaceful life. In this lesson, Fr Emmanuel discusses the three powerful prayers that are read during the initial part of the Baptism Service. These prayers protect, forgive, heal and strengthen us as they bless the water, which is then used to sanctify the one being baptised.
