1217. In the liturgy of the Easter Vigil, during the blessing of the baptismal water, the Church solemnly commemorates the great events in salvation history that already prefigured the mystery of Baptism:

In Baptism we use your gift of water, which you have made a rich symbol of the grace you give us in this sacrament.11
