My parents gave me this pendant on the day I was baptized.

My name pendant is very important to me because it was given to me by my parents on the day of my baptism. For me, it is very sacred because it reminds me of the day I did my first sacrament. My pendant is important to me because it was given to me by my parents. I feel as if wherever I go, my parents are right by side.. When I was getting baptized, my pendant was blessed by  Father Vicente from the Sagrado Corazon de Jesus (Sacred Heart of Jesus) Church. Even though I was four years old, I can still remember most of that day. I was baptized the same day as my sister. This day was the first time I felt as if I was connected to God, and my pendant reminds me of it everyday that I use it.
