The Sacrament of Baptism ushers us into the divine life, cleanses us from sin, and initiates us as members of the Christian community. It is the foundation for the sacramental life.
English Baptism classes are required every three years. If you have not taken a class, parents and Godparents can sign up here. Classes are offered the second Saturday of each month on zoom from 10am-11am. Winter 2021 dates are: February 13, March 13 and April 10. You must also provide a Catholic Baptism Certificate for at least one parent and Godparent(s), and the child's Birth Certificate.
Any child 7 years and older will enroll in the Rite of Christian Initiation adapted for Children program. These children will be attending classes to prepare for the reception of Baptism, Confirmation, and First Holy Communion at the Easter Vigil Celebration.
