BAPTISM

We begin our Christian journey through the Sacrament of Baptism, a journey that gratefully does not happen alone, but in relationship with God and our Christian faith community.

“Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons and daughters of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the church and made sharers in the mission…”

Infant Baptism:

Congratulations!  God has blessed you with a new life to care for and share your faith.  St. Catharine of Siena joins with you in welcoming the new young Christian into our community.  We want you to be prepared both for the celebration of the Sacrament for your child and to know the resources available as he/she grows.  Arrangements for the Pre-Baptismal Preparation Program should be made before the birth or adoption of the child or shortly thereafter.  Baptisms are performed the first Sunday of each month at 12:30 PM (following 11:00 Mass).  Contact the Parish Office at 661-0651 to schedule your child’s Baptism and/or the Pre-Baptismal Preparation Program.
