Thank you for thinking of presenting your child or yourself for Baptism, which is one of the three Sacraments of initiation in the Catholic Church (along with Confirmation and the Eucharist).

Baptism is central to the Christian faith and it's something that changes us forever as we become a child of God and so enter the family of the Church.

St John the Evangelist Church run a Baptism group on the first Tuesday of every month, we can go through the procedures of Baptising a child under the age of 7 or someone over the age of 7 years of age as their  are 2 forms of Baptism dependent on age. all are welcome.

If you would like your child or yourself to be Baptised, then the first step is to contact the Parish Priest through the Office
