INFANT BAPTISMS
Baptism is the celebration of new life in Christ. Through water and the Holy Spirit, your child becomes part of God's family and the Church. It is the first of the sacraments and the beginning of your child's faith journey.
If you would like to have your child baptized at Holy Rosary, you must be Registered Parishioners (living north of Derry Road). If you are new to the Parish or are first-time parents, we ask that you come to the Parish Office during regular office hours to provide some basic information. At that time we will discuss the obligations and responsibilities of parents and godparents and will arrange a baptismal date with you if it is clear that you are sincere in fulfilling your responsibilities in raising your child in the Catholic Christian faith.
