This is my first grandchild, the baby for whom I asked our FR prayer warriors to pray back in November. Thank you, all. The delivery went splendidly and he is a healthy, bouncing baby boy.

Praise and glory to our LordJesus Christ.

I’ll pray for everybody, of course.
You may like to know that it was our son’s choice to get himself baptized, at age 7, that began the process of leading his father back into the church after many years of the bitterest atheism. Our son wanted his father to witness the baptism so my ex sighed deeply and went—and there heard a sermon that touched his hard heart. The Lord used this child. May the same thing happen to your son.

Amen! The Lord Jesus said: “And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them. And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 18:2-4)

Although I raised him in the faith, my son has been away from the faith since his late teens.

Do not dispair.
I also fell away from my faith in my late teens.
I didn't come back until my 40's.

I am now, once again, in prayer, in study of the Bible, active in my church, and, once again, in a personal relationship with God and Jesus.

Your son is still a Catholic. Perhaps your grandson will bring his dad back to the faith. I pray this happens.

9 Yrs ago a I was talking to a young lady, she had nominally been raised a Catholic and had had her first son baptized but through our conversation decided to baptize her other 2 children. We ended up going through RCIA together and all 3 of her children have been altar servers, in fact, the 2 youngest just served at the ordination of our new priest.

For many baptism of their children becomes the catalyst for deepening their own faith, so he’s on the right track.

Prayers.

Prayers offered for your grandson and your entire family -- and may you all receive God's blessings through this marvelous event!

And in a very special way, may your infant grandson help lead your son back to the faith that would enrich both of their lives so greatly.

Prayers up for your grandson and your whole family.

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

This is wonderful news (choosing to baptize the child,) Bigg Red, and I hope you take great encouragement from it.

I will pray that your son comes back to the Church, as I once did.
