Baptism PrograM:
Our program provides information that helps parents
and godparents fulfill their responsibility as the primary
religious educators of the child. A Baptism class is
held for parents and godparents, and needs
to be completed prior to the scheduled Baptism.
Baptism can be celebrated
in two ways in the Cathedral Baptismal font:
a) Candidates can
be totally immersed by stepping into the pool, or
b) Candidates
can be
baptized
by pouring water over the forehead using the bowl.
While
practice may change with experience, pouring water over
the forehead will be the usual way to celebrate Baptism.
