Infant Baptism

Welcome to Our Lady of the Assumption Parish

Infant Baptisms (in English)

General Information

We are happy to assist parents to have their children baptized into Jesus Christ and to welcome them as members of the Catholic Church. Children under 7 years of age may be baptized at the request of their parents. Children over 7 years will need to follow a process adapted from the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. Being active members of a parish community enables parent(s) to authentically raise their children in the Catholic Faith.

Parents need to be registered members of Our Lady of the Assumption Parish, or reside within the parish boundaries. Parents residing in other parishes will be asked to obtain a letter of permission from their parish pastor to baptize their child at
Our Lady of the Assumption Church.
