"Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons [and daughters] of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: 'Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word.'"  (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1213)

“Baptize first the children; and if they can speak for themselves, let them do so. Otherwise, let their parents or other relatives speak for them.”  Saint Hippolytus of Rome , The Apostolic Tradition, 215 A.D. 

We are thrilled that you are inquiring about Baptism for either yourself or your child.  This is because the Sacrament of Baptism is the introduction into the community of faith.  Next to the gift of life, the second greatest gift you can give your child is the gift of Baptism!

Every baptized person should consider that it is in the womb of the Church where he is transformed from a child of Adam to a child of God. - Saint Vincent Ferrer
