In this lesson your child learned that Baptism gives us a share of
God's own life and love. We call this grace. Through
Baptism we are freed from the slavery of sin and
welcomed as members of the Church, the body of Christ.
Explain to your child that every baptized person has the
responsibility to live as a follower of Jesus. This
means that we live our faith in Jesus every day. It also
means caring for those in need and those who are treated
unjustly. Your example in living your own Baptism will
help your child grow in living the faith.
Sign of the Cross
You might want to recall and share your memories about your child's
baptismal day. Make the sign of the cross as you bless
yourself and your child with holy water. Explain to your
child that this reminds us of the water used on our
Baptism day.
