Baptism

Baptism is the first Sacrament of Initiation. If you wish to have your child Baptized please read the introduction below.

For a child to be baptized in the Roman Catholic Church, there must be a basis for hope that the child will be raised in the Catholic faith. In practice, this generally means that at least one parent is a practicing Catholic. There is a pre-baptismal appointment with the pastor for the parents seeking baptism for their child. Parents wishing to have their children baptized at St. Bartholomew’s must be registered and active members of the parish.
If you are not a registered member but have been regularly attending at St. Bart’s, you are encouraged to register as a member. Call the parish office and request a meeting with the Pastor
