Parent Connect September 15th
Parent Connect:
This week in Confirmation we discussed the relationship our faith has to the Sacrament of Baptism. Baptism is our gateway to life in Christ, and it plants the seed of faith within us. Take time this week to talk with your candidate about their baptism. Talk about the day, the people who were there, the priest who baptized them, and the church they were baptized in.

Take time to discuss with them why you chose them to be baptized and how you chose their godparents. Don’t underestimate how powerful it can be for your teenager to hear this story; your witness of faith will speak volumes.
