Hi, good news first of all, my daughter Mica who is 13, got baptized this Easter after joining me in the local RCIA classes, unfortunately I have to wait, for reasons I shall not go into here.
Anyway I feel so blessed and proud that she feels strong enough to make this decision herself and taking such a big step, knowing the peer pressure from her friends and several people on her dad’s side of the family.
She has been getting some grief from her dad (even though he attended the service), her dad’s girlfriend has been having ago at her about getting baptized as well. As well as this there are some kids at her school who take the mickey out of her because of her Christian beliefs.
She is such a beautiful gift from God, and does not deserve to be treated this way, and it’s also starting to make her ask questions as to whether she’s made the right choice.
So I ask you dear friends to pray for her to stay strong and never give up and not to bow down to the pressures others are putting on her.
Thanks Mandy xx
