This baptism record is for Johanes Lörch, son of Johannes and Eva of Selbold on Advent Sunday 20 December 1663. The record was obtained from Archion.

I would greatly appreciate help with the remainder of the information. It would be most helpful to me if the German words could be spelled out and then the English translation written separately. I am trying to learn to read the script. Thank you!
