What To Say When You Baptize Someone

If you are baptizing someone, you may want to say a few words, such as:

  1. "I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."
  2. "I baptize you as a symbol of your faith in Jesus Christ and desire to follow Him."
  3. "May the Holy Spirit fill you with strength and passion to follow Christ all the days of your life."
  4. "May you be blessed with the joy and peace that comes through living a life of faith."
  5. "May this baptism be a fresh start for you, washed clean of past sins and filled with new hope and purpose."

The important thing is to speak from the heart and convey the significance of the moment to the person being baptized. Baptism is a significant act of faith, and words of encouragement, blessing, and inspiration can help the person being baptized understand the importance of the decision they have made.
