The Belonging: Baptism in the Family of God Starter Pack provides all of the resources needed to plan and implement Belonging. It contains:
- The Parent’s Guide paints a picture of how their child’s heart, soul, and life will be transformed by their baptism into the Catholic Church.
- The Session Guide provides structure and guidance during your initial meeting with the parents, helping to address their questions and concerns about their child's upcoming baptism.
- The DVD Set provides six program segment videos (about 10 minutes each) and supplemental videos, both led by Father Mike Schmitz
Both the Parents Guide and the Session Guide are structured in 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.
