Baptism is a serious step--a step we spend much time getting ready for. We get new clothes, we get a candle to light the way, water to help us grow, oil for strength, even companions for the journey. But that is only the beginning of a much longer journey, a lifetime journey of commitment and discipleship,"" writes DeGidio. Traces the Church's evolving practice about the baptism of infants and adults and explains the various symbols used in baptism. ""Baptism begins with God's love and care revealed to us through Christ. It continues with us, the Church, living and enacting God's love and care through Christ to the world. That's a serious commitment.""
