Christenings / Baptisms
There are few things more exciting than being a Christian and growing up walking with God at our side and that of our children.
We offer two types of baptisms, one for those who are old enough to make their own promises of following Jesus and secondly one for the very young, who have parents and godparents making such promises on their behalf.
Those old enough to make their own promises.
A suitable course to help candidates understand the basics of the Christian faith is offered.
If you are interested in exploring this possibility and what the Christian faith means, contact the Rector.-
Those who are not old enough to make their own promises.
The church asks enquiring parents to follow a two step approach:- First, have a Service of Thanksgiving with dedication for your child. This can easily be incorporated at most of our 10am Sunday services. This Service of Thanksgiving with dedication makes few demands on parents and the godparents.
Secondly, should you feel you want your child to be baptised we ask you to attend the Sunday morning services on a regular basis for a couple of months and then to have some preparation in order to help you understand the promises and declarations you are asked to make publicly. This service also happens at a morning service.
