Today I Was Baptized

by Dianne Ahern

A childrens read-to-me story about a baby's baptism day. The story is written from the perspective of the baby watching the goings-on of the day. The story helps children to understand the Sacrament of Baptism and is especially helpful to prepare siblings for the Baptism of their new brother or sister. Six short essays explain the significance and traditions associated with Baptism. The essays are nice 'refreshers' for Christians who might not have thought about Baptism for a while, and are helpful to explain Baptism to individuals who have not received formal religious education. It becomes a keepsake book with pages for parents and godparents to write their own special message to the baby, include photos of the day, insert a copy of the baptism certificate, and more. It makes a perfect gift and keepsake to commemorate this special day.
