————————————

1, water is a necessity of life and has a close relationship with life, which is well known. In the history of God's creation and salvation, it also shows the importance of water, such as extinct floods, water in the Red Sea, water in the wilderness (Moses smashed stones to get water), water in the Jordan River, and water for baptism in the New Testament era. Although modern people use tap water more, many areas still live by spring water or well water. For these springs and wells, it seems appropriate to hold a blessing ceremony to provide believers with an opportunity to praise and thank God, drink water and think about the source: because God is the master of the universe, he supplies drinking water for human beings and all animals and plants.

2. When friends gather around the spring or well, the leader who presides over the ceremony will draw a cross:

Ritual: In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Answer: amen.

Ritual: Praise the holy name of the Lord.

A: From this life to forever.

Read a short passage, such as:

(a) Then 36, 25:

The Lord said to us, "I will sprinkle clean water on you and cleanse you from all kinds of impurity and idols." 」

(2) If there are four, 13- 14:

Jesus said to the Samaritan woman by Jacob's well, whoever drinks this water will be thirsty again; Whoever drinks the water I give him will never be thirsty; The water I gave him will become a spring of water among those who run towards eternal life.

Then you can sing (read) the following cheers:

All the chemicals of the Lord, A: Praise the Lord.

Angel of god,

All the water in the sky,

All the rain and dew,

Ice and snow,

Clear spring water source,

Oceans and rivers,

Cosmic humans.

4. The ceremony spread out his hands and read the following blessing scripture:

Ceremony: Lord, we praise you because you have given human beings water to live on and purified them; You are willing to give us eternal grace through the water of baptism. Please bless this spring (well) so that we can keep our health and purity of mind through this spring (well), and please make us drink the living water of your salvation through the sacrament of the church. The above requirements are based on our Lord Christ.

Answer: amen.

5. The ceremony can be carried out by sprinkling newly blessed water on parishioners, or letting parishioners draw a cross by hand.
