This reforming and reshaping of our lives is what we celebrate in the sacraments of initiation – Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist. What we celebrate is not a once-and-done event, however. What we celebrate is the life-long dynamic of God inviting us to die to sin and our response of embracing his saving grace. Each day that we live in Christ, we are born anew. Our baptism is not an event of past memory. It is a renewable source of energy…It is a bond that continues to be forged in the fire of the Holy Spirit each day of our lives. (p. 64)
