There are some great new resources coming from Augsburg Fortress:
Washed and Welcome - Baptismal formation materials in four parts. The first three parts are due toward the end of November. This publication will deal with families with infants and young children because those are the ones most commonly baptized. It will have a Baptism Sourcebook with a CD-ROM and there will be a full-color smaller sized book to give to parents or sponsors with 101 Ideas for remembering, celebrating, continuing the rite of baptism.
The fourth part will come in the spring and will deal with adult baptisms.
Be sure to watch this site for news of its arrival. Get your name on the list to preview this new, long awaited material.

Quick correction: the fourth piece will be a board book for infants and toddlers, "Welcome, Child of God," written by Anne Ylvisaker and illustrated by Claudia McGehee. The text is set to the tune of "Go, my children, with my blessing" (also known as "All through the night"). Resources supporting baptismal preparation and formation for adults are in development, but the release date is TBD. Stay tuned!
