Ja het was heel tof - al vond ik de uitgebreide uitleg van wat er precies allemaal ging gebeuren nog leuker dan de ceremonie zelf, maar dat is waarschijnlijk de academicus in mij.

This weekend I attended an Eastern-orthodox baptism and before the ceremony, the priest gave an explanation of what was going to happen. Holding an icon like this one, he explained that the baby was going to play Christ, he was going to perform as John the Baptist and we were all playing the angels.
