Baptism is the gateway into the Church and the first of the three Sacraments of Initiation (along with Confirmation and the Eucharist).  In Baptism, we are "born of water and the spirit," we are given the ability to "walk in the newness of life", and we fulfill the command of Christ to "make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit".

We welcome the opportunity to meet with you and discuss the baptism of your child.  Baptisms are celebrated on the first and third Sundays of each month following the noon Mass.  If you are registered parishioners of St. Thomas More and  would like to have your child baptized at St.Thomas More;

• Contact Sharon Hall to set up a time to prepare required paperwork.
• Attend a baptism preparation class if this is your first child to be baptized.
• Choose Godparents who are at least 16 years of age and are fully initiated practicing Catholics (they have recieved the sacraments of Baptism and Catholic Confirmation).

Our baptism prepartion classes are held on Sundays at 1:00pm following our noon Mass.  Please contact Sharon Hall to register for a class.
