The Sacrament of Baptism was administered to Scarlett Rose Wysocki, daughter of Sebastian and Ashley (nee Burr) Wysocki on Sunday, September 20th. We congratulate parents, godparents, Anthony and Jessica, family members and friends on this special occasion.
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.
