The Birth of a new child is a very happy and holy event. Therefore, when we introduce the child into the Church Community through Baptism, it calls for a celebration. Baptism preparation anticipates this celebration. Participants enjoy and appreciate the opportunity to discuss and share views on this important sacrament.

INFANT BAPTISM CLASSES
Our Baptism preparation program was initiated to help parents and sponsors understand why we baptise our children. The subject is discussed in practical rather than theological terms. The basic themes of Christian Community and parental responsibility are developed in the overall context of the baptismal ceremony. Thus, the baptism event has more meaning for those present.

Parents are required to take an Infant Baptism Class prior to the Baptism of their first child.

Baptism Preparation is usually held the last Tuesday of each month but there are always exceptions and these dates are subject to change (7:30 - 9:30 PM).
Upcoming Classes are
held one evening a month from September through June.

 Please note:  There are no preparation classes during December, July and August.

Registration for Baptism Classes can be arranged by calling the Parish Office.

Dates for Baptism may be scheduled on the 1st & 3rd Sunday of each month during the Saturday 5:00 PM, Sunday 9:00 AM or 10:45 AM Masses by calling the parish office.
     There are no baptisms during Lent and Advent.

Older teens, young adults and adults are invited to call the office for programs suited to their needs. See also RCIA.
