BAPTISM FACTSHEET
who can be a Godparent? It is more than just an honour to be asked to be a godparent to a child...parents must choose wisely. A godparent is to be a source of strength, support and encouragement to the parents in the bringing up of their children in the faith. One godparent is sufficient; but you may have two in which case, one should be male and the other female. To help you decide the Church lays down criteria:

† ST JOSEPH’S HARROGATE ¢ This factsheet gives you some background information on Baptism. We will talk through any queries you have at our Baptism Preparation Course.
Baptism- Symbols water Water, which gives as well as takes life is a symbol of both life and death. When we are baptised into the death of Jesus, we die with him upon the cross. When Jesus dies so does all sin and death. Our baptism does not end in death but continues with life. As Jesus is raised from the dead by the Father and given new life, so are we through the waters of baptism, raised to life in Jesus Christ. The waters of Baptism wash away Original Sin and make us a new creation in Christ.
This white garment, the Church, tells us is an outward sign of our Christian dignity. Once we have put on Christ, we are to always walk as His followers.
the candle The Light of Christ is passed on to us in the form of a lit candle, which was lit from the Paschal Candle that was blessed at the Easter Vigil. We are called to be the light of Christ in the world and we are asked to keep that light burning brightly.
the oil of chrism
baptism symbols We use a number of symbols during the Rite of Baptism. These include Water, the Lighted Candle, Oil of Chrism and a White Garment. Here we talk about the meaning of each symbol.
The rite of baptism
Chrism is a perfumed olive oil consecrated by the Bishop during Holy Week. This oil is used to anoint the crown of the head of the person being baptised. In ancient times men and women were anointed to be proclaimers of God's message to the world. We are anointed to bring the good news to others by the way that we live our lives. We are anointed priest, prophet and king just as Christ was.
The service includes the following four parts: Reception of the child
The parents and godparents present the child for baptism
Celebration of God’s word
One or more scripture passages are read
the white garment
Celebration of the Sacrament
The baptism takes place at the font
Once we have been claimed for Christ through the water of life we are clothed in a white garment.
