Sun shines on Felicity's baptism as new pro-life generation gathers

Yesterday, I had the honour and pleasure of attending the baptism of Felicity Carroll, the daughter of Madeleine and Conor Carroll - pictured right, with the sun shining on the happy occasion.

I first met Madeleine and Conor when I joined them carol singing a couple of Decembers ago at Bond Street tube station in London - raising money for the wonderful Good Counsel Network, for which  Conor works as chief fund-raiser.

Good Counsel Network is a life-affirming women’s organisation which offers a free pregnancy test, free advice, medical information, practical help and moral support to women seeking abortion.

Felicity's baptism took place in the family's parish church, the Sacred Heart Catholic church in Flitwick, Bedfordshire. The picture above was taken during the first part of the ceremony which took place outside the church. It gives a small glimpse of the many young people who gathered for the ceremony - friends, family and supporters of Good Counsel Network - a new generation of the pro-life movement in Britain.
