The Sacrament of Baptism is the first step in a lifelong journey of commitment and discipleship. Baptism washes away original sin and incorporates one into the body of Christ. It is received only once in one's lifetime; it is not a repeatable moment. Whether we are baptized as infants or adults, Baptism is the Church’s way of celebrating and enacting the embrace of God.
For children under 8 years of age, the sacrament is celebrated the FIRST Sunday of the month at 2pm. Parents must present the birth certificate of the child. Both parents and godparents are expected to attend one catechetical session in advance, on the Wednesday before the baptism, at 7pm.
