  • Headline Section 324995
    • Scheduling a Baptism

      Parents are required to attend a Baptism Preparation Class.  A Baptism date cannot be reserved until the parents complete the class.
      Click here to register your child for the Sacrament of Baptism.

      Please do not choose Godparents until you review the established Guidelines for Godparents below.

    • What is Baptism?

    •                                                          Godparent Guidelines

      The following conditions are qualifications for one to be a godparent. They are regulations stated in the Code of Canon Law. They are the laws of the universal church and are not negotiated at the parish level.

      1. There may be one godfather, one godmother, or one of each (Canon 873).  If there are two godparents, one must be male and one female.
      2. Godparents are to be at least 16 years old.
      3. Godparents must be fully initiated in the Catholic faith (Baptism, Confirmation and First Eucharist).
      4. If Godparent(s) are not parishioners at Holy Family, a Baptism Sponsor letter will be required from their current parish.
      5. They should be leading a life of faith in harmony with the duty they are undertaking. This includes (if married) being validly married in the Catholic Church, attending Mass on Sundays and does not cohabitate with a significant other (if not married).
      6. Must be actively registered at a Catholic parish.
      7. They may not be the father or the mother of the one to be baptized.

       
  •                                       Celebrate Your Child's Baptism Anniversary!


    • Trace the sign of the cross on the child’s head and heart then pray:

      Loving God, You created all the people of the world,
      And you know each of us by name. We thank you for N.,
      Who celebrates the anniversary of his/her baptism.
      Bless her/him with your love and friendship that she/he may grow in wisdom, knowledge, and grace. May she/he always know her/his identity in You, the she/he is your beloved daughter/son.

    • -Look at pictures and videos from the Baptism ceremony and explain what happened that day.
      -Light their baptismal candle during dinner or a special treat.
      -Print a Baptism coloring page, watch the Brother Francis cartoon called "The Miracle of Baptism" or do something special to celerbate the day.
