Children up to the age of reason (age six) may be baptized at the parent's request. At least one of the parents must be an active Catholic who is committed to raising their child in the Catholic faith. Parents and godparents are required to attend a Baptism preparation class prior to the baptism. Godparents must be practicing Catholics registered in a parish, at least 16 years old and must have celebrated the Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist and Confirmation and if married, married in the Catholic Church. If the godparents are members of another faith community, they can attend a Baptism preparation class in their home parish. If parents or godparents have attended other Baptism preparation classes within the past two years, the decision for any additional preparation will be made on a case-by-case basis.If you anticipate presenting your child for Baptism, arrangements should be made well in advance in order to adequately prepare for the celebration of Baptism. Pre-registration for the class is required. English Baptism preparation classes are held on the third Saturday afternoon from 3 to 4:30 PM of each month with some exceptions for holidays and holy days. Spanish Baptism preparation classes are held on the third Saturday afternoon from 5 to 6:30 pm of each month, again with some exceptions for holidays and holy days.
Communal Baptisms in English are held on the first Saturday morning of the month. Communal Baptisms in Spanish are held on the second and fourth Saturday mornings of the month.
