The Waters of Baptism
Infant Baptism:
By bringing a child to the waters of Baptism, an invitation to a rich moral, extraneous life has been extended to that child. It is a life above our earthly life that will continue for eternity, a life in Christ. We are happy to arrange for your child's baptism. Baptism takes place on the second Sunday of the month, except during the Lenten Season.
Requirements for Baptism are:
- Parents must be registered members of the parish for at least 6 months prior to baptizing a child.
- Baptism class prior to their child's Baptism.
Requirements for Godparents:
- The Rite of Baptism calls for one godparent, but two may be chosen.
- Cannon Law requires that godparents must be at least 16 years of age and fully initiated.
- At least one godparent must be a Catholic, they must be in good standing with the Church and have been Confirmed.
- A non-Catholic may serve as a Christian Witness
