Baptism is our birth as Christians, making us members of Christ: “We were all baptized into one Body... you are the Body of Christ and individually parts of it.”  Though Baptism confers great gifts, it’s not a final stage in God’s generosity towards us - only a beginning.  Thank you for deciding to have your child baptized, and initiating your child’s journey through life of faith.
Parents and Godparents are required to attend a preparation class for the sacrament of Baptism that is offered by the parish.  The preparation includes an explanation of the theology of the sacrament, a run-through of the Rite itself, as well as an explanation of the Church’s requirements for the sacrament.
