God bless Benson Jessie
On Sunday, September 22nd the Sacrament of Baptism was administered to Benson Jessie LaPorta, son of Christopher La Porta and Cynthia (nee Crespo). Proud godparents were Edwin Crespo and Sabrina Cardona. We congratulate LaPorta, Crespo families, and their friends on on this special occasion.
The Sacrament of Baptism-Confirmation is the foundation of our Christian faith, is a gateway to new life in the Spirit, and the door that gives access to other sacraments. Through the Sacrament of Baptism-Confirmation 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, Benson was marked to receive the 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 lead to Salvation. Parents, godparents and all members of our parish pledge to help this child to grow in Christian faith.
