Except in the case of emergency, arrangements for Baptism are
made during a preparation course for parents. Please contact Sister Mary or
Father John Paul.
The procedure for baptism is as follows:
Any parent(s) wishing to have their child baptised should
introduce themselves to Fr. John Paul or Fr. Simon at the back of the Church
after Mass. If you have a note with your name and address and telephone number,
this would be really helpful. We will introduce you, again after Mass, to a
Parish Catechist who will then ‘befriend you’ during the following weeks and
months. If you are a practising catholic family, we will begin to discuss dates
after a few weeks, and you will have one or two short meetings in preparation
for the celebration.
If you are an infrequent attender at Mass, we will encourage you
to build up this part of your faith, so that the celebration of Baptism will be
consistent with the Baptismal promises you will be making. When both the family
and the Parish agree that it is now appropriate to celebrate this Sacrament a
date will be agreed and one or two meetings with Catechists will be arranged.
After the celebration of Baptism, a certificate will be presented to the family
at Mass on the following Sunday.
For children
aged from three years old takes place during the first part of the Sunday
morning Mass.
Children
come into Mass at the start, and if they wish after the opening greeting go
into Marian House with their leaders and then return to parents half way through
Mass.
Meet
on Fridays during term time at 7.00 pm for Young People aged 10 to 14.
Please
see the parish website for a copy of the weekly bulletin to confirm mass times.
