St. John's

For those with a younger child whom you still give baths to.  When you are rinsing their hair, take the time occasionally to remind them that God also washed them at the Baptism.  Spend time sharing how much the Lord loved them and that he still cleans us everyday from the bad things we do. Use a large glass filled with water to rinse their hair and as you pour each glass say, "Jesus loves you so much that he made you his in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit."  As you pour each glass refer to each part of the Trinity.   It's another teachable moment in the life of your child to share with them their Lord. A bonus is that when they come to church and there is a baptism, they will know a little more about what is happening because you have taught them.
