Скачать или смотреть What Is the Holy Water Font? | Catholic Kids Learn About Church Objects | Catechism for Kids

Have you ever seen a small bowl or container of water at the entrance of a Catholic church? That’s called the Holy Water Font! In this Catechism for Kids episode, we’ll discover what it is, why we dip our fingers in it, and what it teaches us about our faith.

The Holy Water Font is filled with holy water, a special water blessed by a priest. Catholics use it to make the Sign of the Cross when entering and leaving the church. But why? Because this simple action reminds us of:

Our Baptism, when we were welcomed into God’s family

The cleansing of our souls and a fresh start with God

Asking for God’s protection and blessing before we pray

This episode helps children understand how even small actions — like dipping your fingers in water — can carry deep spiritual meaning. The Holy Water Font isn’t just a church decoration. It’s a beautiful reminder that we are God’s children, made clean by His love and grace.

Let’s learn to use the Holy Water Font with joy and reverence every time we step into God's house!
