Gospel Basics
What Is Baptism and Confirmation?
Jesus Christ was baptized. After you turn eight, you can be baptized too!
When you’re baptized, your whole body goes under the water. This reminds us that sins and bad choices can be washed away because of Jesus Christ.
You promise Heavenly Father that you will do your best to follow His commandments.
After baptism comes confirmation. This is when you get the gift of the Holy Ghost. That means the Holy Ghost can always be with you! He can help you follow Jesus’s example.
