The Baptismal font is of great importance. At Saint Alphonsus Liguori, it is very noticable and at the entrance of the church; so you are immediately reminded of your own baptism as you enter the worship space. By our Baptism we have become members of Christ, dedicated to following him all of our lives.
Baptism is our initial sacrament of iniation. -
