Baptism aims to support parents and godparents when preparing to present a child for the sacrament of Baptism. In presenting a child for Baptism parents are preparing for a second birth – a birth into the Christian community. Unlike the Jewish tradition, where a person is born Jewish if their mother is Jewish, nobody is ever born a Christian. That is why the baptismal font is sometimes referred to as the "womb" of the Church. Here we are reborn into the Body of Christ. At the conclusion of the ceremony the celebrant blesses the parents and reminds them of the responsibility they have undertaken in presenting their child for Baptism. They are the first teachers of their child in the ways of faith, and the celebrant prays in the name of the Church that they may be "the best of teachers, bearing witness to the faith by what they say and do." This booklet offers a simple explanation of the various stages of the celebration of Baptism and the rich symbolism of this ancient ritual. It also..

Lent is hard, and it's so frustrating when we lose focus and surrender to our weaknesses time and time again. That's why all the great saints encouraged meditation as a sure-fire way to place yourself in God's presence and grow closer to Him. Through meditation, we take our eyes off ourselves, and we walk faithfully in the hands of God. There is no better time to begin—or to renew—the habit of meditation than during the Season of Lent. If you want to combine the spiritual benefits of a holy Lent with the bountiful harvest that regular meditation brings, then your soul is crying for Meditations for Lent. These brief but powerful meditations are collected from the voluminous writings of 17th Century Bishop Jacques-Benigne Bossuet. Bishop Bossuet is considered to be among the best homilists in the history of the Church, and his great piety and eloquent writings have been cherished by Catholics for hundreds of years. Now they're available to you in English, for the very first time! In t..

Each chapter ends with prayers and devotions. ..

THE MEANING OF LENT INDIVIDUAL LEAFLET The Meaning of Lent Individual Leaflet By Millico, Fr Ivano (Author) $1.00 Lent is more than forty days of repentance. Lent is a journey full of meanings and graces, projecting us to the joy of Pentecost, passing through the waters of Baptism at Easter. By reflecting on our baptism, the dialogue of faith and the Gospel 'scrutinies', our Lenten journey takes on a new dimension, and so does our prayer, fasting and almsgiving, as we experience the joy of passing from death to life, from slavery to freedom in Christ Jesus. 16 pages..
