Baptism Bears help to reconnect with families
|
We also used a brief, informal liturgy to renew the promises made at baptism. It was a fun way to reconnect with people, and got a good response. Full details and photos are on my blog: https://becausegodislove.wordpress.com/2017/09/23/celebrating-baptism-with-a-teddy-bears-picnic/

We have recently started giving children a hand-knitted bear at their baptism. We decided to invite all our baptism families from the last five years (before we started giving out bears) to a Teddy Bears’ Picnic where they were presented with their Baptism Bear.
