Title

Pandemic and the Right to the Sacraments

Description

Often parents delay baptism of their infant child until they can gather the family together for a celebration. However, “parents are obliged to see that their infants are baptised within the first few weeks. As soon as possible after the birth, indeed even before it, they are to approach the parish priest to ask for the sacrament for their child, and to be themselves duly prepared for it”
