We are so happy you have chosen to baptize your child. You are following Christ’s command to “make disciples of all." You will be the first teachers of your child in the practice of the faith; may you be the best of teachers.
Baptism washes us clean of sin and changes us forever. We become adopted children of God and members of the Body of Christ—the Church.
