Water, Oil, & Life: getting ready for baptism

Water, Oil, and Life: getting ready for Baptism

Have you shared the joy of welcoming a new life into the Body of Christ here at Saint Anselm’s at a baptism?  This is one of the best moments in the life of a family and in the life of the whole church. It is time for us to deepen and enrich the experience of families asking for the baptism of their children. Seasonally, we will have a baptismal preparation meeting for families planning to baptize, whether their child is already born or on the way. This single session will include knowledge about the church’s understanding of Baptism through the years, but also an invitation to enter together into the great gift this sacrament proclaims and shares.  Since Baptism brings us entry into the community of Christ, it is right that the community walk with the families as they prepare.  If you want to know more, email or talk to Father George (gsherrill@stanselmsofshoreham.org).
