Baptism

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 in the word." Catechism of the Catholic Church (1213)
If you would like to arrange a baptism in one of our churches in the Parish of St John XXIII please click HERE to view the Baptism Request Form which you can print out. When you have completed the form please hand it to one of our priests or deacons.
The forms are also available from all of our churches.
Once the form has been received you will be contacted to arrange the final details of the Baptism.
