Who

The church welcomes anyone from the parish, or who has a connection with the parish, who asks for baptism. We baptise babies, children, young people and adults. We invite you to explore what baptism means by engaging in a preparation session.

Baptism is a welcome ceremony to join the family of the church. Jesus was baptised in the river Jordan by John the Baptist. Jesus calls on all believers to join him. Baptism can be by full immersion in water or by more of a sprinkling from a traditional font. 

how

If you would like to explore baptism please contact the church office to arrange to speak to Rev Rachael Brooks.
