Baptism

Your child will be embraced by God and supported by our faith community.

The first step to discipleship

The sacrament of baptism initiates us into God’s family and frees us of original sin.

Adults looking to get baptized are asked to go through the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults process to receive their sacraments.
