By Thomas J. Scirghi, SJ
In this powerful DVD presentation, Father Thomas Scirghi introduces parents, godparents, and those involved in RCIA to the Sacrament of Baptism and its role in the Church today. He answers common questions:
~ Why do we baptize?
~ Why did John the Baptist baptize Jesus?
~ When did the Church begin baptizing infants?
~ What's the role of a godparent?
~ How is ritual important?
Authoritative, lively, and full of video examples of baptisms and insights from lay Catholics, Father Scirghi then walks through the "Five parts of the ritual of Baptism," one-by-one, in detail, explaining what each step means. He answers tough questions that Catholics have today about this Sacrament, explains what it means to "remember" our Baptism, and how, as Catholics, our Baptism carries us through until our death.
