I would like to announce that for anyone who was either orphaned, or not introduced to the Kobolian community as a child, may come forth and be initiated as a full Kobolian.
This Kobolian Initiation consists of a special ceremony and has been blessed for you by a High Priest or Priestess right here in the Temple, with Official Representatives (myself and my Star Cyrannus Quorom members), to witness the initiation, as well as any family members and friends of yours.
Of course we are as much your family, as you may think of us as.
Here forth is the ceremony for any fellow brother or sister.
"We welcome a new sister/brother into our community of the Kobolian Faith.
By presenting yourself here today, (YOU), a new member of our number, acknowledge and accept the ways and practice of our fellowship that has been taught and passed down to us from generation to generation, by the Lords of Kobol.
In performing this ceremony publicly today, we as representatives of the community declare that you , have joined us under the eyes of God, with dignity and freedom, as an individual, unique and precious to God.
In this act we witness the initiation and the accepting of the ideals, friendship, peace and justice, which you have so freely and consciously chosen to follow and dedicate yourself to.
We, as representatives of the community, also acknowledge our responsibility in providing a safe haven, spiritually and physically, in which our new sister/brother may be nurtured daily in wisdom and strength.
May our new member, which we have accepted into our community of ideals and friendship, receive a abundantly the blessings of health, love, knowledge and wisdom, and in turn give back richly to the common heritage that endures from generation to generation.
We welcome YOU.
We welcome you into the fellowship of life, and dedicate you to the service of freedom, righteousness and love. May your life continue to be rich in vision, full in accomplishment and afire with the highest of ideals.
We anoint you with the sacred oil taken from the holy Temple under the Star of Kobol in Eden.
As we touch the crown of your head with the symbol of the faith of the Lords of Kobol, we declare you, Kobolian.
Let us pray: Lords for the gift of our new sister/brother, who's friendship and contributions we rejoice in and give thanks. May she/he be a credit to our community, to the family that bore her/him and nurtured her/him, but also to herself/himself and to the children that she/he in her turn may bring, or have brought, into life.
May the Lords of Kobol watch over her/him from this day forward, blessing her/him and strengthening him/her in their service, so that she may walk on his/her new path set before her/him without hesitation and without faltering but with unwavering faith.
May it be so."
Siress Sarika, Siress Nacky, Siress Zoe, and Sire Hawke all wish to extend our hands in fellowship to you, and to wish you all blessings unto you all your life through!
