Baptism - A Sacrament of Great Celebration
Baptism is a time of great celebration for a family
and the parish community. It is the sacrament when a
new member of the church receives the Holy
Spirit for the first time. This baptism celebration
calls for friends, family, and parish members to gather
together to welcome the newest member of the church.
