Sweet Baby Blessings*

As Officiated By
Rev. Paul Michael

Rev. Paul, "We had a wonderful experience working with you. From our first initial meeting up to the actual event things went smoothly and just the way we hoped they would. We appreciated your willingness to work with us to get what we were looking for. There was never any pressure to do things that we didn't find comfortable, nor did we feel hindered, because you were so open to our ideas...Through it all, our correspondence with you felt like greeting a family friend. On Isabella's blessing day we were touched both emotionally and spiritually by your words that were shared with all of us in attendance. We achieved a memorable experience in Isabella's life. A way to bless her arrival into all of our lives. Thank you for making this possible." Angela

An indescribable beautiful Light Blessing for your precious baby as civil non-religious, religious, sacred, interfaith, creative and spiritual as you as mom and/or dad could possibly want. I will be your guide and make this simple and easy for you. Lots of ideas and entirely flexible. A baby blessing ceremony is simply one of the most touching meaningful and practically-wise ceremonies on Earth. The setting for your child's blessing is typically a midday pot luck with family and friends and God Parents in your home but it can be anywhere. I want what is best/most relaxing for you and your baby.

The blessing affects everyone present: In officiating Baby Blessings for many years, I can accurately say that it's ah-mazing. I personally feel moved by the Loving and Light present during the blessing which, I am told, is felt equally by each person attending. I always hear from parents and family just how great it felt to be there in the room (patio or yard). Whoever comes to the blessing feels so glad they came.

And I cannot leave out the most special person touched: your baby. It's beyond words to describe how and when babies react during their blessing, even young ones a few weeks old. They may not have their eyes open and part of them may be asleep, but they show us in some way that they are 'listening'. Some babies have opened their eyes and looked at me during a part that (presumably) touched them a lot. This makes us all very happy.

Any questions? You may use the Form at a wedding site that I publish (even though it's primarily for weddings). Or call me at 480-970-1020 or 623-252-4256 so we can talk on the phone. The four of us can meet in-person so I can go over with you my Starting Baby Blessing Kit and go over creative options that wonderfully personalize it even more (like my receiving sharings from the most near and dear people to your baby and, then, on blessing day, reading what each has shared for your baby to him/her. These sharings are in words that a 5 year old could understand. This part will be meaningful for your child's entire life).

Reverend Michael,
We would like to thank you for your beautiful words and presence. You have made the happiest days of our lives so special, and memorable. How happy were we to have you marry us 9 years ago, and then to have you come to our house and bless our first child in our garden was just such an amazing experience. My family can't stop talking about it, and for good reason. Thank you for being a part of our family. We can't wait until our next special event! Sincerely, Stephanie and Chris

Dear Paul,
I just wanted to tell you that Josh and I and all our family thought the baby blessing ceremony was very beautiful. I was wondering if you could email me that Godparent Legacy (your creative option) that the Godparents wrote. I would like to hold on to it for Violette for when she's older. Thank you again for everything. Lisa
