The Belonging: Baptism in the Family of God Parents Guide features thought-provoking discussion questions, engaging content, and a gorgeous layout, painting a picture for parents of how their child’s heart, soul, and life will be transformed by their baptism into the Catholic Church.
The Parent’s Guide is structured into 4 parts:
- Part 1: The Meaning of Baptism - Here, parents will discover a clear and compelling answer to the most fundamental question they are asking, “Why am I having my child Baptized?”
- Part 2: The Rite of Baptism - In this section, parents are given the details of the Baptism rite (the symbols, the materials used, the parts of the rite) so they can approach the sacrament confidently.
- Part 3: The Role of Parents and Godparents - What are you promising as the parent of the child being baptized? What obligations are you taking on when you agree to be a child’s godparent? All these questions and more are addressed in this section.
- Part 4: Raising a Young Catholic - Where do you go from here? Now that your child has been baptized in the Catholic Church, and you have promised to raise them in the Faith, how do you go about that? This section provides practical advice and guidance on how to create a Catholic culture in your home.

Loved the course. Explains very very well. Father Mike is wonderful. Keep up the great work. Our Godson is going to be ready for his new life being a child of God. Thank you
This is an absolutely wonderful resource - it is very informative and extremely personal. I love the use of stories and personal experiences used in the course. The questions at the end of each segment were thought-provoking and very profound in nature. This course reified my belief as a Catholic and made me feel proud to baptize my children.
Great content! A good mixture of storytelling with biblical lessons.
I did enjoy Father Mikes explanation of the steps for understanding the Baptismal process!
The course was practical and meaningful allowing for a fuller understanding of the sacrament..
