Baptism Preparation
“Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Matthew 19:14
With these words, Jesus invites us to bring our children to him.
Through the Sacrament of Baptism,
your child becomes a son or daughter of God!
A priest once asked new parents if their baby was theirs.
The parents looked confused by the question. "Of course," they said. But, the priest shook his head and said,
"No, you are only babysitting for God."
God has given you a beautiful gift and, just as you plan and care for your child's physical well-being, you are entrusted to care for this little one's spiritual growth, as well.
Can you think of a greater gift to give to
your child than to become God's child?
For a better understanding of the sacrament of Baptism, we offer an online, at-your-pace program called Belonging, along with guidance from a team of parish parents. Baptisms are scheduled following completion of the program and remittance of a Sponsor Certificate from Catholic sponsor(s). You may begin preparation even before your child is born!
Come, Open.
