BAPTISM

INFORMATION ON BAPTISM AT SPBTS

Holy Baptism is a sacrament by which God welcomes new members into Christ’s Body, the Christian Church, and offers them a place in the reign of God as expressed through the Christian faith. Anyone is welcome to be baptized at St. Paul’s by the Sea.

What is required:

• Meet with the clergy to discuss baptism
• Fill out the baptismal form
• Attend a brief run through before the service.

The Church calendar has four feast days on which Baptisms are especially appropriate. They are the Feast of the Baptism of Our Lord in January, the Easter Vigil in early spring, the Day of Pentecost in late spring, and All Saints’ Day in November. To schedule the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, please contact the Church office.
