The next Baptism Preparation class is Sunday, March 13, 11 am in the Stayton-Scheer Room.
Parents, families and the Church each have specific roles in the ritual of Baptism, so before your child is baptized, we meet with you so that our celebration of the Baptism ritual is done gracefully and well. Due to COVID, these meetings happen virtually, usually via Zoom.
At the meeting, we will go over the details of the ceremony, with emphasis on the symbols and the promises that you will make for your child. We’ll also cover the movements that you will make with your child and the godparents.
We have special instructions for children 4 or older; we will discuss these with you.
Please contact Mary Pat Storms (mstorms@olpls.org or 251-1113) to reserve your space for the class.
Baptisms are usually celebrated at the end of the 4:30 p.m. Saturday Mass or after the noon Mass on Sunday.
Blessings on you and your family, and we look forward to meeting with you to prepare for your child’s Baptism!
