On the "Ask Sister" podcast, a grandmother writes in who is very worried that her 8-month-old granddaughter still hasn't been baptized. Franciscan Sr. Shannon Schrein joins Sister Maxine to shed some light on the issue with a discussion about a layperson baptizing a child on her own, the church's teaching on limbo, the different forms of baptism, and more.
