Bianca's Blessing

Yesterday Ale took our baby Bianca on his arms to give her a name and a blessing. 

In the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints this ordinance is performed in fulfillment of the commandment in the Doctrine & Covenant 20:70 that says:  

"Every member of the church of Christ having children is to bring them unto the elders before the church, who are to lay their hands upon them in the name of Jesus Christ, and bless them in his name". 

Just like Jesus taught in St. Mark 10:16.

In conformity with this revelation, only worthy men who hold the Melchizedek Priesthood may participate in naming and blessing children.  Ale invited a few close friends to participate on Bianca's blessing. And this year my mom was with us! Unfortunately she couldn't watch Giovanna's blessing, so this year I am extra happy! It was beautiful! We are so lucky for having the gospel in our lives. 

I pray that my children can always feel their Savior's love and always find joy on His path.
