We went to the church today to learn about belonging to the church. We took part in a Baptism so we could understand how people show that they belong to the Christian family.
We had parents and godparents.
The first thing we did was light a candle and pray.
We learned that there are three symbols for Baptism, the cross, oil and holy water. Sarah put a cross of oil on the baby's head.
Then we all made crosses with the oil.
The baby was then taking to the font for the Holy Water. 
Our baby was named Lou Lou in the ceremony. She was very well behaved!
We learned a lot about the church too and became detectives, finding out lots of clues about belonging to the church.
