Viviendo el bautismo en Cuaresma - 8 Pieces Per Package

Description

Meditaciones para cada semana

During Lent, the Church invites us to reflect on those times that we have turned away from God and consider how we can return to him in all we say and do. Living Your Baptism in Lent: Weekly Reflections for Your Journey helps readers respond to this invitation by reflecting on their relationship with God. Through the grace of our Baptism, we have become sons and daughters of God. As such, we are strengthened by the Holy Spirit to reject sin and choose instead to follow God. Each week, readers consider this choice as they reflect on the questions asked before Baptism. These questions, or baptismal promises, shape our understanding of what it means to live a Christian life. They call us to become witnesses of our faith to others, especially to those who are preparing to be baptized at the Easter Vigil. Our Lenten journey leads us to the celebration of Easter, where we renew our baptismal promises and rejoice in the salvation gained for us by Christ’s Resurrection. Each week’s reflection ends with questions and Scripture passages to use in individual prayer. A guide for leading small groups in these reflections is also included.

About the Cover:

Through the waters of Baptism, a new Christian enters into relationship with God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This relationship, or divine dance, extends to all the Christian encounters, for by this sacramental initiation, the newly baptized has committed to being like Christ in the world. The beautiful cover design of this ritual book reflects the diversity of the Church and evokes influences from Hispanic, Greek, and Celtic art. It symbolically depicts the many theological meanings of Baptism. Representing the waters of the font are spiral waves surrounding concentric rows of triangular tile. The three rows symbolize the Triune God and correspond to the three times the person is immersed in the reconciling waters. The size of the tiles provide a visual effect that calls to mind descending and ascending steps within many immersion fonts, thus symbolizing that through Baptism, a person dies to self and rises anew with Christ Jesus. The circular nature of the font represents both an immersion font and the unity that Baptism forms with God and other baptized Christians. The center of the font is a triple spiral. It reminds us that Baptism is an encounter with the Triune God and the spirals point to the waters of the font.
