Baptism

The Sacrament of Baptism

Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word.
Catechism of the Catholic Church 1213

Parents/guardians wanting to have their baby baptized need to pick up a Baptismal Packet at the parish office and make a reservation to attend a Baptismal Seminar. Please make sure you return your completed packet to the office no later than two weeks prior to the seminar.

Please don’t set a Baptism date until you complete a Baptismal Seminar. You do not have to wait until your child's birth to complete a seminar.
