Baptism is one of the two outward signs of God's love for us that Jesus told us to do. Baptism is by water and in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Baptism is about entry into the life of the community of faith and entry into the story of faith. Baptism can be administered as an infant, confession made by parents or godparents, or as an adult, confessions made by themselves. Baptism is normally administered during a church service whent the community of faith is gathered.
Marriage is the relationship you have with your partner. In the Anglican church this relationship is between a man and a woman.

Preparation for marriage and the wedding are a part of this, helping you to identify the strengths and growth areas of your relationship.
