Why is Meghan Markle really getting baptised?
by Mark Woods, Christian Today:
Why is Meghan Markle getting baptised and confirmed before her wedding to Prince Harry?
The US actress is reported to have been brought up as a Protestant but attended a Catholic school, so religion has been far from absent in her life. However, Kensington Palace confirmed to Christian Today that she has not previously been baptised. This is not as unusual as might be thought. The standard model in most evangelical churches (the likely meaning of the widely-reported ‘Protestant’, which also covers the Church of England) is believer baptism, often in the mid to late teens, and there might have been various reasons for not taking this step.
So why now?
