A side chapel where baptisms are performing. St. Bart's Church (Episcopal)
I worked in the building across the street for a little over 5 years and don't remember every walking inside this church.
Yesterday was my wife's granddaughters's Baptism. . It surprised me that in a fairly large church that was full I was able to get a such an intimate shot from a distance.
I really do love this camera. Being the most self conscious person on the planet , having a camera that is completely silent is a huge asset.

Lake Superior - North Shore
This is the Tettgouche State Park where the Baptism River enters the big lake! The beach area and channel changes every year depending on wind, waves and currents. . . never the same!
It's a beautiful area to explore, hike or just pause to savor the natural beauty that surrounds you in this place!

Baptism
Until then I had only offered my advice, visions and incantations. However, the dark and foreboding events looming on the horizon demanded my direct participation. It became imperative that I consecrate myself and receive sacred baptism, allowing me to wield the sacred sword and fight alongside the new knights who will save us from the hordes of barbarians who seek to conquer the ancient land...

Tettegouche State Park - Lake Superior
Along the North Shore, the Baptism River flows into the big lake through this state park. Hiking trails, camp grounds and views like this to enjoy the autumn colors.
One of my favorite areas for hiking, photos and secluded coves for just quiet . . .

Repeat design for me... although this time i didn't have time to order cupcake wrappers.. and although I actually have many here... I didn't have 30 the same... or 30 appropriate for a baby boy's baptism.... so I decide to make my own. Quite long & tedious work cutting out 30 of these... Not sure if i would cope with 100! LOL

Chills the body but warms the soul, Hallelujah!
"Christ is baptized and the whole world is made holy; he wipes out the debt of our sins; we will all be purified by water and the Holy Spirit."

Tableau from Old St Mary's Basilica in Detroit.
This Mosaic of 'The Baptism of Christ by John the Baptist' is over the left side door. which leads into the Cathedral's Baptistery. Most of the other mosaics on the cathedral façade are more directly related to the story of Mary.
This 'Baptism of Christ' was the first mosaic created when work on the Duomo's facade mosaics began in 1359. However all of the original mosaics have been heavily restored over the centuries and many have been completely replaced.
The bronze statue standing at the apex of the gable is of St George (slaying the dragon)
Orvieto; March 2017
I made one dozen of each of these designs for a cousin's grandson's baptism. She didn't think she could eat a cross, so I made sure there were the lambs for her!
"Our Lord voluntarily submitted himself to the baptism of St. John, intended for sinners, in order to "fulfill all righteousness." Jesus' gesture is a manifestation of his self-emptying. The Spirit who had hovered over the waters of the first creation descended then on the Christ as a prelude of the new creation, and the Father revealed Jesus as his "beloved Son."
– CCC 1224.

Immersion
Immersion
Main article: Immersion baptism
The word "immersion" is derived from late Latin immersionem, a noun derived from the verb immergere (in – "into" + mergere "dip"). In relation to baptism, some use it to refer to any form of dipping, whether the body is put completely under water or is only partly dipped in water; they thus speak of immersion as being either total or partial. Others, of the Anabaptist tradition, use "immersion" to mean exclusively plunging someone entirely under the surface of the water (submersion).[94][95] The term "immersion" is also used of a form of baptism in which water is poured over someone standing in water, without submersion of the person.[96][97] On these three meanings of the word "immersion", see Immersion baptism.
When "immersion" is used in opposition to "submersion",[98] it indicates the form of baptism in which the candidate stands or kneels in water and water is poured over the upper part of the body. Immersion in this sense has been employed in West and East since at least the 2nd century and is the form in which baptism is generally depicted in early Christian art. In the West, this method of baptism began to be replaced by affusion baptism from around the 8th century, but it continues in use in Eastern Christianity.[96][97][99]
