Brothers and sisters in Christ, we are all baptized by the one Spirit into one body, and given gifts for a variety of ministries for the common good and the edification of the Church.

The Priest The candidate may now be presented.
The Presenters Mother Trula, we present to you William to be commissioned as the verger of St. Paul’s.
