Baptism

Full authority has been given to me both in heaven and on earth; go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations. Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.    -Matthew 28:18-19


Baptism for Children under Age 7 

Baptisms of infants and young children are celebrated on the 2nd and 3rd Saturdays of each month, or during a Sunday liturgy. The Sacrament of Baptism is generally not celebrated during the season of Lent.
