Baptism is an invitation, a call from God through the Christian community to live the Gospel message as committed disciples of Christ. We become a “new creation” in Christ by sharing in his death and resurrection through Baptism. Baptism gives us the gifts of faith, hope and love. We become temples of the Holy Spirit through this sacrament. Baptisms are celebrated on designated Saturdays and Sundays throughout the year, but not during Lent. Procedure for scheduling Baptism are 1. Register in the parish if not already a member. 2. Call the parish office to schedule the baptism. 3. A member of our parish Baptismal ministry team will contact you. 4. Both parents are expected to attend the parent preparation sessions.
