Sacrament of Baptism

The Sacrament of Baptism

“Baptize first the children; and if they can speak for themselves, let them do so. Otherwise, let their parents or other relatives speak for them.”
— St. Hippolytus of Rome, The Apostolic Tradition (215 A.D.)

The greatest gift parents can give their child is the gift of new life in Christ through Baptism.

No matter where you are on your faith journey, we welcome you with open hearts. If you desire to have your child baptized, we are here to walk with you—to listen, to answer questions, and to help you embrace this sacred moment with joy and confidence.

Baptism is far more than a beautiful tradition—it is a sacrament of transformation. In Baptism, your child is washed clean of original sin, filled with sanctifying grace, and becomes a beloved child of God, united with Christ and the whole family of faith. The Holy Trinity comes to dwell within their soul, marking the beginning of a lifelong journey of grace and discipleship.

Our hope is that this moment marks not only your child’s welcome into the Church, but also a renewed encounter with Christ for your whole family—a step deeper into the loving heart of God and His people.

There is no fee for Baptism, as the grace of God is freely and generously given to all who seek Him.

Note: Catholic Godparents requirements and role:

• Be at least 16 years of age
• Be a fully initiated Catholic (Baptized, Confirmed and receiving Holy Eucharist)
• Not be the father or mother of the one to be baptized
• A baptized person who belongs to a non-Catholic Christian community may be a sponsor only in company with a Catholic sponsor, and them simply as a witness to the baptism.
• Only one male and one female Godparent. A Christian witness may be either male or female.

Godparents assist the parents in raising the child in the Catholic faith by being an example in living the faith and by supporting and encouraging the child to live out their faith in all aspects of life.

Godparents should provide a pastor signed and sealed letter from the parish at which they are registered stating they are a practicing Catholic in good standing and able to faithfully fulfill the role of godparent.
