We gather here today
To welcome a new life
Into our midst.

We bring with us gifts
Of love and hope
To help this child
Grow into a strong and healthy adult.
*Thank you Eledumare for the gift of Life*

We also bring with us
A name,
A word that will be
A part of this child
For the rest of their life.

It is a promise.

Always and forever.
