This new edition of the leading resource for baptismal preparation has been revised and updated to make it perfect for use in parish baptismal preparation programs and for a family to use in planning their child's Baptism. This edition of Together at Baptism contains all the prayers and readings (from the revised Lectionary) provided in the Rite of Baptism for One Child. As with Together for Life, a tear-out sheet provides a record of the selections from the various options in the rite. This makes it easy for priests, deacons, and catechists to use this resource as a tool to help families personalize the celebration. Each part of the rite is accompanied by practical, challenging commentary, and a faith-sharing question. This unique feature of catechesis on the rite can be used as part of a baptismal preparation program or by parents together. The reflection questions are ideal for both small group use and family discussion. Together at Baptism is a wonderful way to help families appreciate the full meaning of the words, gestures, and signs of the liturgy. It will likewise help parents understand more fully the commitment they are making when they ask for their child to be baptized—and to appreciate the meaning of their own baptisms too! This new edition features: * Commentaries on each part of the rite revised in light of the Catechism of the Catholic Church * A new imprimatur * All the biblical readings from the lectionary for use when Baptism is celebrated outside of Sunday Mass * All the texts provided by the rite from which a family can choose * Guidelines for the selection of godparents * An explanation of Baptism by immersion * A family prayer service for the anniversary of baptism Author: Robert Hamma Format: Booklet Pages: 128 Trim size: 6 x 8 ISBN: 9781646800001 Show more
