Purpose
Our purpose for this policy is to provide the framework and supportive
environment in which parents may reflect and carry out the awesome
privilege and the responsibility of the reception of baptism.
Program
Our baptismal sessions will be presented by the Baptism Team. The
program will consist of: A session at the Church held the last Tuesday
of every month from 7:00PM to 8:15PM
The session will provide the time for the following:

Baptism
Faith development of the child
A look at the ceremony:

Reflections
Parents must attend a session before Baptism takes place. Please contact
