On Saturday, August 23rd Xavier (in Baptism Michael) Zeppuhar was Baptized and Chrismated at Christ the Saviour Orthodox Church. The next day, Sunday, August 24th he was "churched" and received the Body of Blood of Christ! May God grant the newly illumined child of God Michael, and his parents Jason & Courtney, his siblings; and godparents Jacob and Kyra Lentz "many blessed years"!

"O Lord our God, who, through the fulfilling of the baptismal font, by Thy goodness dost sanctify them that believe on Thee: Bless Thy child Michael, and let Thy blessing descend upon his head... inspiring him with Thy Holy Spirit; that as he increases in stature, and even unto a ripe old age, he may send up glory unto Thee, and behold the good things of Jerusalem all the days of his life. For unto Thee are due all glory, honour, and worship, to the Father and to the Son, and to Thy Holy Spirit, now, and ever, and unto ages of ages."
