Baptism

Congratulations! It is our great joy and privilege that you are considering Resurrection Catholic Parish for your child’s Baptism. A Catholic Baptism is a celebration of a new Christian in the world. 

​

Baptism serves as the first sacrament one receives when entering the Catholic Faith. It is a sacrament of initiation, meaning once you received it, you officially enter into the body of Christ, the Catholic Church. The recipient receives justifying and sanctifying grace when baptized, and the Holy Spirit begins to dwell within them.

​

Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

For the promise is made to you and to your children and to all those far off, whomever the Lord our God will call.”

- Acts 2:38-39
