MARK WAHLBERG - WAHLBERG'S SON BAPTISED

WAHLBERG'S SON BAPTISED

MARK WAHLBERG and his fiancee RHEA DURHAM celebrated the baptism of their youngest son with a church ceremony in Boston, Massachusetts last Sunday (24May09).
The couple planned the event at St. Margaret’s Catholic Church in Dorchester to coincide with Brendan Joseph's first birthday.
The family, including the pair's older children Ella Rae, five, and Michael, three, travelled from Los Angeles to the star's hometown for the baptism, which was held at the same church where they paid their last respects to Wahlberg's late father at his funeral last year (08).
The ceremony was attended by close friends and family, and saw Mark’s older brother Robert Wahlberg named godfather to the eight month old.
A source tells Radar Online, "Mark’s dad loved his older kids, Ella Rae and Michael. He didn’t live to meet Brendan so it was important for Mark to take the baby to the church were his dad was eulogised. It was a very loving and moving gesture on Mark’s part.”
