  11. I am the Lord your God: you shall not have strange gods before me.You shall not take the name of the Lord, your God, in vain.Remember to keep holy the Lord’s Day. Honor your father and your mother. You shall not kill.

  13. Personal Reflection Questions Family as a reflection of the Holy Trinity How does the family reflect the relationship between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit?

  14. Baptism of the Lord (Luke 3:21-22) • Personal Reflection Questions • What feeling does the phrase “You are my beloved son; with you I am well pleased” (Mark 1:11) evoke for you? • What does God the Father’s word to Jesus, his son at Christ’s Baptism reveal about the relationship between the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit? • We see a loving relationship of the Holy Trinity through the love of God the Father for Jesus, the Son; through Christ’s witness of obedience to his heavenly Father, and the presence of the Holy Spirit. • This loving relationship of the Holy Trinity is the model for family life, and provides the grace and strength for a loving family relationship.

  15. Describe an occasion when a parent’s word or actions reflected the love of God? • Through their love for their children, parents are a reflection of God’s love. • This is one reason the Church calls parents the “first catechists”, because parents’ teaching is the primary way that children learn about the love of God.

  16. Group work • Read the handout “Rite of Baptism for Children”. • Discuss and answer the questions for “Family as a Reflection of the Holy Family”

  17. Class Discussion • Where do you encounter the roles of the Father, the son, and the Holy Spirit in the rituals, prayers, and promises of the Sacrament of Baptism? • How does the Fourth Commandment lead families to model the love expressed between the divine person the Holy Trinity? How are families empowered to live this kind of love?

  18. Summary • It is important for families to remember that they are called to participate in God’s own love as a family. All families will face challenges in doing this. We can only do it with the help of the Holy Spirit. • The celebration of the Rite of Baptism invites parents, godparents and the community to reflect on the Trinitarian relationship through prayers, the words of the baptismal rites, and the signs and symbols used in the Sacrament.

  19. Summary continued… • The priest reminds parents that they are to up the child to follow the Ten Commandments, loving God and neighbor. • In the intercession we pray that through death and Resurrection of Jesus, the children will receive new life in Christ and remain in his love. • By renouncing sin parents and godparents are reminded that through water and the Holy Spirit, the child will receive a new gift of God, who is love. • The Candle reminds the community the child is enlightened by Christ, by the grace of Baptism.

  20. Summary continued… • The Fourth Commandment calls children to honor parents and parents to honor children through mutual expression of the love of God. • We are called to be obedient to the authority as Christ was to the Father, and to rely on the presence of the Holy Spirit, who leads us to the Father. • Families are empowered to live this kind of love through the grace of the Sacraments, fidelity to the Commandments, prayer, and the reading of the Scripture.
