The Sacrament of Baptism is the first of the Sacraments of Initiation (to be followed by Confirmation and Eucharist). 

Congratulations for bringing new life into the world.  It is both exiciting and for new parents unknown territory.  Thank you also for your desire to bring your child to Jesus.

Parents prepare to have their child baptized by meeting with the pastor or deacon.  These meetings involve the discussion of the necessity of baptism, an explanation of the Rite, the role of the parents in nurturing the faith and the responsibilities of the god-parents.

Baptisms take place after the weekend Masses.

Call the Resurrection Office at 603.882.0925 to initiate the planing for your child's baptismal celebration.
