Baptism

Baptism is the first sacrament and brings your child into the family of God, the Church. You should try to have your child Baptised as soon as possible after birth. It is important to come to Mass regularly. At least one of the child’s parents must be a Baptised Catholic with a Baptism certificate. You may need to attend a short Baptism course. The child will also have godparents (maximum of 4), at least one of whom must be a Confirmed and practising Catholic. A Baptism application form needs to be completed. Please speak to the Parish Priest with any enquiries: 020 8940 3101 / kewgardens@rcaos.org.uk.
