Dear Robin,
Our Lady was never baptized. Neither Bible nor Church has any
teaching on her baptism because it never happened. For Catholic
doctrine on Our Lady and her role in God's plan of salvation,
read the Catechism of the Catholic Church*, ## 484-511.
Because you are a recent convert, please hasten to buy your own
copy of the Catechism and study it over the years very
prayerfully with Bible also in hand.
Sincerely in Christ,
Father Mateo
- Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit -
