Jesus himself was baptized by John the Baptist, setting an example for all who would follow him. He later instructed his Apostles to baptize in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, calling all people to new life in God. Through the sacred act of Baptism, we are cleansed from original sin and reborn as beloved sons and daughters of God. This sacrament marks the beginning of our journey in faith, uniting us with Christ and incorporating us into His Church.

As members of the Body of Christ, we are called to live out our faith and participate in the mission of the Church spreading the love, grace, and teachings of Jesus in our daily lives. Baptism is not just a ritual; it is a profound spiritual transformation that welcomes us into the family of God and bestows upon us the gift of the Holy Spirit.

We rejoice at the opportunity to welcome your child into the life of Christ and our Church through this beautiful sacrament. It is a moment of joy and blessing, not only for your family but for our entire faith community. May this sacred occasion be the beginning of a lifelong journey of faith, love, and grace for your child.
