BAPTISM
Baptism is a significant step in the life of a child. It is the beginning of the journey of faith towards God, who is the source of life.
It is a journey in which we grow in a relationship with God.
Baptism is much more than a private family celebration. It marks the person’s entry into the Christian community. This community then promises to love, care for and support parents in their responsibility for raising their child in the ways of faith and as a follower of Jesus Christ.
For more information about Baptism in the Catholic Church please refer to the brisbanecatholic.org.au/life/baptism/Archdiocese of Brisbane website.
The family preparing for Baptism are required to attend a Baptism preparation session,
usually held in the last week of each month at 7pm in St Bernardines church (Date published in the parish newsletter each week)
The family preparing for Baptism presents their child to the Parish community for a rite of welcome at a weekend Mass prior to the Baptism.
Baptisms are then conducted on the 1st and 2nd Weekend's of each month at St Bernardine's.
If you wish to arrange a Baptism at Regents Park Parish, please phone the Parish Office on 3362 8770
Otherwise you can send an email to: [email protected]
We look forward to welcoming you and your family to our Parish community
