“This is the faith of the Church, and the faith to which the child is to be baptized.” With those sacramental words, a priest welcomed Garianna Beatrice Tinoco Ejercito into the Christian world.
Garianna’s parents, Gary Estrada and Bernadette Allyson, could not have been any happier when they had their two-month-old daughter baptized at the Christ the King Church in Green Meadows, Quezon City, on January 21.
Apparently a fashionista baby, Garianna changed into three outfits that day—a white chiffon dress with flowerettes, a maroon satin dress with a beaded waist, and a pink-and-mint-green jumpsuit, all lovingly designed by her mom Bernadette.
