The Sacrament of Baptism
Baptism is the basis of 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 children of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission. Baptisms are celebrated September to June and Baptism Preparation is required by parents.
The Process for Baptism is:
- Review the Baptism Requirements, Godparent Guidelines and Schedule (see below) to ensure you are familiar with the requirements and process for baptism.
- Complete the Baptism Date Request Form and submit to parish Pastoral Minister, Arden Ouellette to secure a date.
- Once the date is confirmed with the parish you will be sent a Baptism Registration Form to complete and will receive information regarding Baptism Preparation.
- All parents registering for Baptism are asked to attend a Baptism Preparation Meeting in advance of the celebration. Those dates are marked in the Baptism Schedule below.
