To overcome that crisis, we need to rediscover the truth about who we are; we need to map our spiritual genome, so to speak. This Retreat Guide, Who You Are: A Retreat Guide on the Sacrament of Baptism, is a step in that direction, because in baptism we find the very DNA of our human and Christian identity.\n<ul>\n \t<li>In the first meditation, we will look at what Jesus teaches us about who we are in God\u2019s eyes.<\/li>\n \t<li>In the second meditation, we will delve into the symbols of the baptismal ceremony<\/li>\n \t<li>And in the conference, we will review some practical activities that can help us all develop our true Christian identity to the
