Here is the write-up about the bag...
My Baptism Bag
My baptism bag was made for me with love to help me remember how important my baptism is.
I can ponder the things inside my bag before and after I am baptized.
In my baptism bag I have an eraser that represents all my sins being washed away or “erased.”
My white bag represents how clean and pure I will be after I am baptized.
I have water to remind me that I am baptized by immersion, just as Jesus was baptized.
After I am baptized, I will receive the special gift of the Holy Ghost.
The little mouth helps me remember that the Holy Ghost will speak to me in a still small voice.
The ear is to help remind me to listen to the Holy Ghost so I will be able to choose the right.
As I listen to the Holy Ghost, he will comfort me.
The little blanket reminds me of the great comforter that will be with me my whole life.
The book signifies the importance of gaining knowledge and wisdom, especially from the scriptures.
The candle in my bag is to remind me to let my light so shine as I walk the righteous path each day.
By obeying the commandments I can show my love to Heavenly Father and Jesus.
The heart in my bag shows how much my Heavenly Father and Jesus love me.
All the things in my bag baptism bag help me remember the sacred covenants I will make on my baptism day. When I choose the right my heart will fill with joy and I will be truly happy.
