These normally take place within the context
of the Parish Mass on the first Sunday of each month. In preparation
for the event, we would ask families who are not members of
our congregations to attend Mass as often as they are able.
You will also have a Preparation Session and rehearsal where
the importance of the Sacrament is explained and you can ask
questions and discuss the service.
It is important to realise that Adults,
as well as children, can be Baptised - you are never too old!
The Church of England does not charge
for this Sacrament, although there is a small fee for the
paperwork involved. However, in order to maintain our service
and pay our bills, we would ask you to consider making a donation.
This will be explained when arranging the Baptism.
