BAPTISM

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you.
— Matthew 28:19-20
Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission.
— Catechism of the Catholic Church 1213

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, incorporated into the Church, and made sharers in her mission. Baptism is a public celebration which is preferably celebrated within the context of the Mass, however exceptions can be made.
