The Sacrament of Baptism was administered to Raymond Rey Bradbury, son of Steven and Pilar (nee Rey) Bradbury on Saturday, September 19th. We congratulate parents, godparents, Robert and Mary family members and friends.
The Sacrament of Baptism is the foundation of our Christian faith, is a gateway to new life in the Spirit through regeneration, and the door that gives access to other sacraments. Through Baptism we are regenerated and incorporated into Christ’s body – His Church.
As God made the covenant with his people so through Baptism, Jesus makes a new and everlasting covenant with his followers. As Jesus won new life for us on the cross, with the symbol of the cross, Scarlett was marked to receive her new life in the Lord. As the waters of the Red Sea led the people of Israel to freedom, so the water of Baptism gave new life and led to Salvation. Parents, godparents and all members of our parish pledge to help this child to grow in Christian faith.
