Clara Lynn LaForge was baptized at Solana Beach Presbyterian Church on September 21, 2008. The ceremony was especially meaningful to Heather and me because it was performed by our pastor and friend, Mike, at the 5:45 service, which we call home. Clara was supported by a tremendous group of loving family and friends who traveled from all over the country to celebrate with us. During the service, despite the sea of eyes upon her, Clara was exceedingly calm and attentive, as if she grasped the importance of the occasion. Her godparents, our good friends Blake and Megan, joined us on stage, and as a bonus Clara had the honor of helping Mike with the benediction.
Below are a few pictures of the pre-baptism bbq and the church service. Thank you so much to all of our friends and family who made such an effort to be with us and celebrate this joyous moment in Clara's life (and those sisters who were there in spirit- we missed you!).
