We congratulate Nelson Castillo Jr. and Kiara Marie (Santiago) on the baptism of their precious daughter, Valentina Rose Castillo on Saturday, April 7th. We also congratulate the proud godparents, Brandon Santiago and Isabel Castillo as well as grandparents, members of Castillo and Santiago families, relatives, and friends. We welcome Valentina as the newest member of the Holy Church.
The Sacrament of Baptism is the foundation of our Christian faith, it is a gateway to life in the Spirit and the door that gives access to other sacraments. It regenerates us to a new life of grace, unites us with God, and makes us members of Christs’ Church. In baptism we are immersed into the life of Jesus – His death and resurrection.
