Baptism

Infant and Child Baptism (up to 7 years of age)

A preparation course is required for the baptism of a couple’s first child or if it has been more than 2 years since last attending the course. Call to arrange an interview and to sign up. Some parents come during pregnancy as life gets very busy after birth. Babies are baptised during a Mass or at a special ceremony on a Saturday. Contact:  0208 800 2121.
