Sacrament

Baptism

On Easter Sunday and other occasions through the year we renew our
Baptismal promises, reminding us of the significance of our own Baptism
and how it is embedded in the life of the Christian community, the Church.
Parents seeking Baptism for their child, coming as they do from different
places in the terms of faith and motivation, need the care and outreach of a
welcoming faith community.

St. Bernadette’s Parish as a welcoming community, endeavours to support
you in making the faith decision to baptise your child into the Catholic Faith.

Our Baptismal Team offer support through, our monthly Baptism
Preparation Meeting, and their involvement in the celebration of Baptism.
The sacrament of Baptism is celebrated on the first and third Sundays of
the month at 1pm.

In regards dates for Baptisms contact the Parish Office using form Application Form (see button at top of page) or call (01) 473 3109.

Ideally, Baptism takes place in the parish where you live and worship,
where Confirmation and Holy Communion will be celebrated.

At least six weeks’ notice of Baptism is required.
