Parishes provides parishes with a step-by-step process and a wide range of tools and
information for transforming infant baptism programs into infant baptism ministries.

"I recommend the use of this
book, Infant Baptism: A Sourcebook for Parishes, as parishes welcome, prepare, and
follow up with those families who bring infants for baptism. Quality catechesis combined
with evangelizing outreach should be the hallmark of a parish’s celebration of infant
baptism."
-Francis Cardinal George, O.M.I.
Archbishop of Chicago
