1st Month

I celebrated my full-month (05 May 2013) in the church. It was special because it was the first time I attended church since I was born. It was more special because I received the Ordinance of Naming and Blessing a Child.

It was customary in the church where I and my family attends, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to bring a newborn to the the elders of the church and bless him in his name. My Daddy led the ordinance together with Bishop David Lee, Brother Jason Lim, Brother Kevin Koh, Brother Arun, Brother Irvin Yew and Brother Michael Ang.



I was given the names FYODOR SIGMUND LISONDRA SEBASTIAN. Fyodor is of Russian origin meaning "God's gift"; Sigmund is of German origin meaning "victorious protection"; Lisondra is my Mommy's maiden name; and Sebastian is my Daddy's surname.

After church, we got us a small cake to mark the occasion. =)
