Baptism Towel

I made this CTR towel for my nephew after finding this Poem online... 

My Baptism Towel

This baptism towel is to help remind you

Of your baptism day all the years through.

When you come out of the water all clean and pure,

Dry off with this towel and you can be sure,

That you are as clean as this towel is white.

And the Holy Ghost will be with you both day and night.

For the Holy Ghost is your gift after the laying on of hands,

And will be a comfort and a guide if you obey God's commands.

This CTR emblem will help remind you to be strong

As you continue to learn right from wrong.

When your towel becomes soiled, remember that we, too,

May sometimes make mistakes and we've been taught just what to do.

Just as you can wash your towel so it can again be clean,

The wrongs you make can be washed away and never again be seen.

Your Heavenly Father loves you, remember always to pray,

And He will be beside you for forever and a day. 

I am not sure who to give credit for the Poem. But it was a sweet thought and reminder. 

I made a matching Tie for him to wear also,  it took me a few hours but I was pleased with how it turned out for my first shot at appliques! I cut the letters out in my Silhouette but you could used the template of the CTR shield above if you want to give it a try.
