The Sacrament of Baptism
Baptism is a sacred rite through which we are welcomed into the Christian community and embraced as children of God. Whether for an adult or a child, baptism marks the beginning of a lifelong journey of faith.
Promises are made by the individual or, in the case of children, by parents and godparents, affirming a commitment to grow in faith and live according to God's love. Water and holy oil are used as outward signs of this spiritual rebirth.
How to Arrange a Baptism
Baptisms at St. Peter's are typically celebrated at the Sunday 10:00 AM service on appointed feast days throughout the year. If you're interested in learning more, please speak with a member of the clergy on Sunday or contact the parish office.
We'd be glad to walk alongside you as you prepare for this joyful milestone.
