Baptism at St. Paul's
What is baptism?
From the first century, the followers of Christ practiced baptism as a primary Sacrament of the Church. Essentially, baptism is a response to God's love for us. Through this sacrament we are initiated as members of the Body of Christ, and we are offered the assurance of God's grace and forgiveness.
How do I prepare my child/myself for baptism?
For children and youth, two prepatory classes are held prior to the celebration of baptism. Parents are required to attend both sessions. Godparents are also welcome.
For adults, we ask that you meet with a member of our clergy to begin the process of preparing for the sacrament of baptism.
Who should I contact?
If you are interested in being baptized at St. Paul's, please contact the Rev. Les Carpenter at ext. 15.
