Welcome to the Covenant People of God Edmund! May you walk in the faith of your fathers all the days of your life. May the fear of the Lord reside in you, making you fearless among men.

Bienvenue au Peuple de l'Alliance, Edmund! Que tu marches dans la foi de tes pères tous les jours de ta vie. Que la crainte de l'Éternel demeure en toi, en sorte que tu sois sans crainte devant les hommes. Selon la signification de ton prénom, Edmund, que tu sois « un protecteur prospère », qui bénit et qui  protège ton entourage avec les bénédictions et la puissance que le Seigneur te donnera. Et selon la signification de ton autre prénom, Lucien, que tu sois une lumière parmi les hommes. Que tu portes la foi de tes pères jusqu'à mille générations.    
Ton Père, Daniel 

 

Here is the congregational charge that was given:

Little Child, for you Jesus Christ came to this earth, struggled and suffered; for your sake He crossed Gethsemane and went through the darkness of Calvary; for your sake He cried: 'It is finished'; for your sake He died and for your sake He overcame death; indeed for your sake, little child, and you—still—know  nothing of it. And thus the word of the apostle is confirmed: 'We love God, for He loved us first.'
