Baptism Preparation Classes
Baptisms are regularly scheduled at 1:00 PM on the 1st Sunday of the month and during a morning Mass on the 3rd Sunday. The priests are very willing to accommodate you when grandparents and godparents travel plans require additional times. It is required that the parents attend one preparation class. In this class the meaning and symbols of baptism is discussed. A short film on the meaning of baptism is viewed and a film on a baptism at St. Thomas More is seen to help the participants know what to expect.
