The Sacrament of Baptism

Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua), 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 and in the word."

Baptisms are celebrated every Sunday at 1:00 p.m. Parents must be active registered members of St. Mary's Parish. Parents are also required to attend a Parent Preparation session. Please call the Rectory for the date and time of the next Parent Preparation Session.
