Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua), and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word." - CCC 1213 

Please see the Baptism packet on the parish's home page under documents (available in English and Spanish).  You can also pick up a packet in the office during regular business hours.  Baptisms will not be scheduled until all required paperwork has been turned in and at least 2 weeks prior to the desired baptism date. To have your child baptized we ask that you provide for us certain sacramental records.   For all other information on baptisms in our parish please contact the Parish Office  at 251-9838 or by email at info@stelizabethpf.org.
