Level I (Children's House) Baptism When someone is baptized he receives a candle lit from the Easter Candle. What materials from the Atrium are about Light? What works include candles? When do we hear about Light in the Bible? Maybe you would like to draw a picture of one of those materials from the Atrium. Where do you see light? Did you see the sun rise? Have you ever seen stars at night? What happens to the darkness when the light comes? What could we say to God who shows us that the Light is always stronger than darkness? | Level II (1st - 2nd) The Rite of Baptism The gift of Baptism is so great that there are many articles, gestures, and prayers which are part of the Rite of Baptism. Make a list of all of the items and gestures that are you can remember from the Baptism area and illustrate your work. Level III (3rd - 6th) "You are light in the Lord. Live as children of light." (Ephesians 5:8) What do you hear in this Scripture? What does it mean to be "light in the Lord?" How can you live as a child of light? How could this Scripture passage help you as you write on the blank page? |
There are so many gifts surrounding us in creation. In the Church, we celebrate Baptism as the particular way in which Jesus shares the gift of His Risen Light and Life with each of us. Comments are closed.
