Baptism

May He bless the mother and father of this child.
They will be the first teachers of their child in the ways of faith.
May they be also the best of teachers,
Bearing witness to the faith by what they say and do.

Infants and Young Children: Baptisms are held, as often as possible, Sunday afternoons following the 10 a.m. Mass. Other times are also available that are mutually convenient. Arrangements can be made by calling the parish office at 314-352-8100.

Children: Children (7 years and older) who desire baptism normally prepare through our Parish Grade School with the consultation of the clergy.

Baptismal Preparation: This is for parishioners who are or are about to be first-time parents or godparents (although you are also invited to attend if you already have children or have been godparents before).  You are asked to call the parish office at 314-352-8100 to register a session.
