In your Baptism the Holy Spirit, Lord and Giver of life, made you a member of the holy Christian church. God Himself was acting through the water and the Word. Now the church has heard your confession of the faith and been assured that after diligent study of God's Word and Christian doctrine you are able to examine yourself and worthily receive Christ's body and blood. As steward of the divine mysteries the church invites you to share Holy Communion regularly with your fellow believers. By the laying on of hands the church confirms that God's blessing rests on you. The church prays with you that in your baptismal faith you stand firm unto death and receive the crown of life.
