Back to Home PageBAPTISMAL PREPARATION
Participation in a sacramental preparation program for parents, in accordance
with the Archdiocesan guidelines and those of St. Mary's, is required.
It is a good idea to arrange for the Baptismal Preparation prior to the
birth of the child, since family time usually becomes more hectic once
the baby arrives. Arrangements for this program can be made by contacting
the church office.

This program prepares children for their first reception of the sacrament of reconciliation.
