About the sacrament
Baptism is the first sacrament. The Catechism calls it “the basis of the whole Christian life” and “the door which gives access to the other sacraments” (CCC 1213).
Through Baptism we are freed from sin, reborn as sons and daughters of God, made members of Christ, and incorporated into the Church (CCC 1213).
For the baptism of a child or an adult, contact the parish office.
