What is required for Baptism is the parent(s) of the child (children) are practicing their Faith consistently, and that the parents seek Baptism for their children. Usually parishes will have some kind of a prep program for the parents(s) seeking Baptism for their child (children) No "letter of freedom" is required. However if the parent(s) of the child (children) are not practicing their Faith at the time of contact with the parish about Baptism, they will have to begin to practice their Faith. This means registering with a parish, attending Mass consistently on Sunday's and Holy Day's of Obligation, and support of the community with time, talent, and treasure.

The obligations for the Godparents chosen is that they must be one male, and one female. Ideally both are to be practicing Catholics, but one practicing Catholic will suffice. The other must at least be a validly baptized Christian. However the non Catholic is called a "Christian Witness" not a "Godparent." (This means Mormon's and JW's among others would not be eligible to be Godparents or Christian Witnesses) Each Godparent must get a letter from the parish where they are registered and practice which states that they are Catholics in good standing. This letter is signed by the pastor.

What will baptism do?

It depends on what type of baptism. Spiritual baptism is being immersed in the Holy Spirit when a person accepts Jesus Christ as the Son of God and asks for forgiveness of their sins. It is necessary for salvation and everlasting life in heaven. On the other hand, water baptism is used to pronounce a saved person's public profession of faith to fellow believers through Jesus's example. If a person has already been spiritually baptized and becomes a Christian, water baptism is recommended but not required. Some churches believe that water baptism is essential to salvation also, but, in the Bible, Jesus clearly states that only spiritual baptism is necessary.

What is the relevance of Christ's baptism to our own baptism?

The Savior showed the importance of baptism by being baptized Himself. He lived a perfect life, but still was baptized to 'fulfill all righteousness.' That means that He was baptized because it is a required ordinance (John 3:5), and to be a perfect example. We must be baptized by His authority in order for the baptism to be valid in the eyes of God, and that authority has been restored to the earth by God in these days!
