Within the Vine

Along with the ‘Me’ bead 

Consider

THE BAPTISED

I am Baptised

Purified

In Christ

Baptised

In The Holy Spirit of God

 Baptised

Into the Body of Christ

Part of the wider Church

I came

As I am

I gave all

I found

Acceptance

Forgiveness

No longer second-hand

I am now First-hand

No longer alone

I am Family

I am Redeemed

Ransomed by your saving Grace

 ‘…as part of the body we pray for the body, the purpose and plan God has for us.’ Fr Lonnebo

I recall the week before my Baptism

I felt so inadequate

Unworthy

Unready

God helped me Believe

I am Loved

Just as I am

I am worthwhile

Just as I am

I am part of the Whole

Together we make an Awesome Team!

Father Lönnebo writes, ‘Say yes to life as life says yes to you.’
