“Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.”

MATTHEW 28:19-28

On the night of the Easter Vigil after the first reading from Genesis, the Church Prays, “O God, who wonderfully created human nature and still more wonderfully redeemed it…”. Baptism is the sacrament to enter into the still more wonderful redemption that Christ has one for us. It is the gateway – or the doors – into life in the Holy Spirit (Catechism of the Catholic Church, Paragraph 1213). Through baptism we are called to become great saints!

At Most Precious Blood Catholic Parish, we do not just desire your child to placed on a sacramental conveyor belt as if the church were a retail store or a sacramental factory, we desire to welcome you into the living breathing organism of the church that is the body of Christ.
