Sacrament of Baptism

"Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua), 4 and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word." CCC 1213

Baptisms are done on the first Saturday of every month after the 4 PM Mass. Baptismal classes are required for new parents and godparents. Call 337-589-7358 for class times. No baptisms are done during the Lenten Season.
