What do I need to do for my child to be baptized?
On behalf of St. Ann we congratulate you on the birth, or upcoming birth, of your child! We would also like to express how happy we are that you would like to have your child baptized here at St. Ann. With this decision you are allowing your child to recieve the most precious gift they can recieve.

Below are guidelines for Baptism at St. Ann and a checklist of the required paperwork:

Required Baptism Forms

"Baptism is the Sacrament of faith" (Mk 16:16) (CCC 1253) But faith needs the community of believers. It is only within the faith of the Church that each of the faithful can believe. The faith required for Baptism is not a perfect and mature faith but a beginning that is called to develop. The Godparent(s) is/are asked "What do you ask of God's Church?" The response is "Faith!" In order for the grace of Baptism to unfold, the parents help is very important, as well as the Godparents, who both must be firm believers, able and ready to help the newly baptized-child or adult-on the road of Christan life. (can. 872-874)
Therefore, a Pre-Baptismal Class is necessary for the Parents and Godparents and is a required part of the process. A Civil Birth Certificate is also required. Classes are held once a month in English on the Second Saturday of every month at 8:30 am in the Formation Building. You must be a registered member of St. Ann for at least three months before taking the class.
Unfortunately, child care is not available for the class, please make necessary arrangements so that you can attend the session with you full attention. If this means parents must take the class separately, you may do so.

This is for the baptism of children 6 years old or younger. For children 7 and older, or for adult baptism, please contact our Director of Faith Formation, Michelle Kalsh at [email protected].
