The prayer Alma used:
Helam, I baptize thee, having authority from the Almighty God, as a testimony that ye have entered into a covenant to serve him until you are dead as to the mortal body; and may the Spirit of the Lord be poured out upon you; and may he grant unto you eternal life, through the redemption of Christ, whom he has prepared from the foundation of the world.
The prayer we use now:
John Smith, having been commissioned of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Our Purpose
As we began to help our oldest son prepare for baptism, we decided we wanted to share with him baptism stories from the scriptures and from our family history. As we began collecting them, we realized that these stories should be preserved and shared.
In order to protect the privacy of those involved, we sometimes use initials instead of names, and give only the year and rough location of the story.
If you have a story you would like to share with us, please email me at brightonwoman@yahoo.com
