Baptism

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 – CCC 1213

​

The first sacrament of initiation, through which we are welcomed into the Church and cleansed of sin, the beginning of our life in Christ.
