In order to register for Baptism Preparation Classes, all information must be turned in to the parish office and payment made at least one week before classes are scheduled to begin. Baptism for Children ages 7 - 17
Children and youth over the age of 7 who have had little religious education are required to
participate in the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) as adapted for children and
youth. Through this process they are introduced to the teachings of the Catholic Faith,
basic Catholic prayers, and the sacramental life of the Church. At the end of the two year
process, they are baptized, confirmed and receive their first holy communion. Baptism for Adults
Please see the section below on the RCIA. Godparents
As a Godparent, your role is to be an example to the godchild. You are called to reflect with
