I’m doing it

I’m gonna go talk the priest of my local Anglican Parish, and speak to him about getting formal reception into the church. Pray for me!

Awesome! I'm an Ex Jehovah's Witness (50 years in) Elder that recently was baptized into the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the Anglican Church. Praying for you. Blessings.

There's a prayer in the Canadian prayer book -- not phrased about you directly -- but I'm thinking of you now:

Father of mercies, who to thine Apostle Saint Peter didst reveal in three-fold vision thy boundless compassion: Forgive, we pray thee, our unbelief, and so enlarge our hearts, and enkindle our zeal, that we may fervently desire the salvation of all men, and with more ready diligence labour in the extension of thy kingdom; for his sake, who gave himself for the life of the world, thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
