Towards a Renewed Understanding of Our Baptismal Identity, Dignity, and Vocation in Christ

In Baptism, the Christian person enters into a new bond, a new covenant with Christ and, in Him and through Him, with all the Baptized, with all humanity, and with the whole of creation. Sons and daughters of the one Father, anointed by the same Spirit, by virtue of sharing the same bond with Christ, the Baptized are given to one another as members of a single body enjoying equal dignity. By virtue of baptism, all share in the life and mission of the Church.

As we begin the yearly observances of Lent, the weekend retreat will help retreatants deepen their understanding of their baptismal identity, dignity, and vocation. The retreatants will have an opportunity to reflect on and respond to the question: How can the Church of our time better fulfill its mission through greater recognition and promotion of the baptismal identity, dignity, and vocation of the people of God?
