Through baptism, we are born again into the family of God and become a Christian, part of a community of believers.
The baptism leaflet below has been prepared for parents, to be given to them at the time of their child’s baptism. It is a way of showing our support and encouragement as they start on their journey of faith together and that can be used to help families reflect on the sacrament.
An adult catechesis resource pack is available to help prepare parents for the baptism of their children. The resource has been widely piloted and used throughout the Archdiocese of Liverpool to engage parents at the baptism of their children and contains a catechist guide, 5 sets of cue cards for catechists and 5 sets of prayer cards for parents.
Prayer cards are available from Pauline Books and Media.
Baptisms will take place at your local parish, so the best thing to do is to find your parish and contact your priest.
