A Homily for Baptism
This is the fourth, and last, homily I will be delivering in my homiletics course (a course on preaching) here at Kenrick Seminary. It's a homily meant to be delivered during a baptism ceremony celebrated outside of Mass. In this homily, I'm baptizing a hypothetical infant Tim, named after my neighbor who was the first to hear this homily in a practice run. The goal was to keep it to 3 minutes because the rite calls for a "short" homily. In any case, I ran a bit long but am satisfied.
Please, if you listen to the homily, post a comment or e-mail me constructive criticism.

P.S.: Five days of class left in the semester!

Very instructional but not likely to hold the attention of most parents in this day and age. Stories.....stories......stories.....that's what necessary to keep their attention and get the message across. Peace.
