"Where's That In the Bible?"
As is shared so well in "The Catechism of The Catholic Church:"
"Always, Baptism is seen as connected with faith: From the very day of Pentecost- [The "Birthday of the Church"] - when the church was born by the Spirit of God- the Church has celebrated and administered holy Baptism.
The baptized have "put on Christ." Through the Holy Spirit, Baptism is a bath that purifies, justifies, and sanctifies. (1226)
In case of an emergency, Baptism can be done at any time of the day or night.
St. Mary of the Angels' 1915 baptismal font is capped by its ornate, gothic brass top which was recently refurbished.
