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 – Matthew 28:19
Holy Baptism is the first of the seven sacraments to be received and the means by which we begin a new life in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and are incorporated into the Church, the body of Christ. Through Baptism we are freed from Original Sin and all personal sins we may have committed.
