Parents who are seeking Baptism for their children are asking that their son/daughter be initiated into the Catholic Community of Saint Michael. The Church baptizes infants/children on the faith of the parents. The ideal is that the parents have a deep faith, which they actively live out in the experience of the Catholic Church Community. Children’s faith is learned from their parents.
To assist parents in preparing for the Baptism of their child, Saint Michael offers a baptismal preparation class. We ask that parents attend the program or provide a written statement from the Catholic Church where the classes were taken within the prior 24 months.
Baptism Classes are normally held on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 8:00 a.m.
Please note that you have to be a Registered Member of this parish to have your child baptized here. It is the privilege of every parish to have their members baptized in their own parish church.
Parents and Godparents who do not belong to this parish, and yet wish to have their child baptized here must submit a certificate of their eligibility and a no objection certificate from the PASTOR of their home parish.
The godparent should be living an exemplary life consistent with faith and responsibilities of a godparent through Mass attendance and following the teaching of Christ’s Church.
To register your child for baptism, the following should be done:
It is important that all the documents (Registration Form, Birth Certificate, Mass Attendance Card, etc.) and the attendance at class are completed prior to the Baptism. Your child’s baptism may be postponed if the necessary items have not been completed.
********************
There is no registration fee for the baptism of your child. However, donations to the parish are greatly appreciated.
Adults seeking the Sacrament of Baptism participate in RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults)
