Baptism

Baptism is the basis of our whole Christian life and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism, we are freed from our sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in its mission.

Santuario, like any other Parishes offer Baptism to the community. Our Parish is encouraging the parents to have their children baptized while they are still young to be able to receive other sacraments and be in union with Christ although; receiving the holy Baptism has no age limit.
