May this baptism be a symbol of a new life, a life lived in obedience to your will and in service to others. Bless William with the courage to follow Christ faithfully, to persevere in times of difficulty, and to grow in love and understanding. May they be a shining example of your grace and mercy, and may their lives be a testament to the power of your love. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
