Baptisms
Can I have my child baptized at Christ Church? The short answer is, ‘of course!’ The longer answer is that, if you are not currently a participant in the community at Christ Church, our priest will request a meeting with you to discuss the commitment that baptism entails. It is our Bishop’s expectation that baptisms are celebrated during a Sunday liturgy (rather than in a ‘private’ ceremony).
If I am not prepared to make the commitment that baptism entails, may I have my child blessed? Of course! A ‘Thanksgiving For the Gift of a Child’ service can be celebrated.
Can I be baptized at Christ Church as an adult? Again, the short answer is, ‘of course!’ Please contact our priest for more information.
Can I make arrangements for my grandchild to be baptized at Christ Church? No. Baptism must be requested by parents/guardians.
What is the cost for baptism? There is NO fee for baptism.
