Baptism

We welcome those who bring children for this sacrament of salvation. Children are usually baptised in the parish church of their parents, since Baptism is about becoming a member of the Church, within the ‘parish family’.

If you are not from the parish, you will need to obtain permission for the Baptism to take place from your parish of residence.

If you are new to St Monica’s, speak to a member of the Parish Team so that you may be registered with us; we would then look forward to getting to know you as a member of our family and congregation over a period of a few months, before the Baptism takes place. All parents will then attend Baptism preparation, and we will then set a date for this joyful event – truly a day of celebration.
