Sacraments in our Parish
Baptism
We welcomed Sophia Amin Atae, Olive Curtin and Michael Fanning in Baptism recently.
We ask Parishioners to please pray for all children and their families.
Parents who wish to register their children for Baptism must attend a Baptism Preparation meeting. Our next meeting takes place on Tuesday, 1st October.
When choosing Godparents for your child we would like to advise the following according to the Law of the Church, Canon Law (872-5):
- A person to be baptised is to be given a sponsor (Godparent) who, together with the parents, presents an infant/child for baptism.
- A sponsor also helps the baptised person to lead a Christian life in keeping with Baptism and to fulfil faithfully the obligations inherent in it.
- There should only be one sponsor (Godparent) or if there are to be two, they should be male and female.
To be permitted to take on the function of a Godparent a person must:
- Be over 16 years of age,
- Be a Catholic who has been Confirmed and has already received the Sacrament of the Eucharist and leads a life of faith.
If you would like to have your child Baptised, please contact our parish office.
