About the Sacrament of Baptism
Adult Program. For the Christian Initiation of Adults, our convert program focuses on our relationship with Jesus Christ. We come to know him, to love him, and to serve him as our Lord and Savior in the community of his church. For information about the convert program at our parish, please click here.
Child Program. The Christian Initiation of Children begins with Baptism. It continues with Confession, Communion, and Confirmation through at least eight years of parish religious education classes. For information about parental preparation for the baptism of their children, please click here.
Parish Community. Participation in the life of our parish community is an important context for the Sacraments of Christian Initiation, both for adults and for the parents of a child. For information about the importance of the parish community in your spiritual live, please click here. The Sacrament of Baptism should be celebrated in the church where you attend Mass each Sunday as a regular parishioner. Not an active member of a parish community at this time?
