Baptism marks the entry of the believer into the Christian community. Along with Confirmation and the Eucharist, Baptism is one of the Sacraments of Initiation. It acts like a sort of gate which opens into the other sacraments. Through Baptism, we have access to the full sacramental life of the Church. We are freed from sin and joined with Christ, sharing in His divinity and destined for eternal life. Baptism leaves us indelibly marked and permanently changed. Once Baptized, we are no longer the person we once were. We have been reborn, dying to our old selves, dying to death and sin, and rising to new life in Christ.
If you are looking to baptize your child at St. Paul, parents must first attend a baptism interview. Interviews are held the 1st Tuesday of the month at 7 pm. No appointment is neccessary. Below, is the needed paperwork to begin the baptism preparation process which can to be brought to the interview.
PLEASE NOTE: If you do not have all these forms at the time of your clergy interview, you will be given an envelope to take home and use to collect the forms. Once all forms have been collected, you can turn in your envelope at the front office to be scheduled for a class. No baptism classes are scheduled without all forms turned in.
