CCC 1213: “Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments.  Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: ‘Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word'”. 

The community of St. Patrick Parish welcomes your child as a member of God’s family in the sacrament of Baptism.  

Parents who wish to have their children baptized are required to take the mandatory Baptism Preparation Program.  Parents who have already participated in a Preparation Program within the last three years may be excused at the pastor’s discretion.  The Baptism Seminar is conducted once a month. 

If you wish to have your child baptized, please watch the video and contact the parish office.

For adult baptism, please see the section “RCIA”.
