Baptisms:
The
Sacrament of Baptism is celebrated on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays at
11:00 A.M. in the morning. Parents must call the rectory for an
appointment to see a Priest for an interview, present the
child’s birth certificate and attend an instruction prior to the
ceremony. The instruction will take place the Saturday prior to
the Baptism, that is, the first and second Saturdays at 11:00 A.M.
Both god-parents must be practicing Catholics.
Marriages:
By
Diocesan directives, arrangements must be made at least six months
prior to any marriage
commitments by a Parish. For your convenience, please call for an
appointment with a Priest. When you come to see the Priest please
bring with you a copy of your baptismal and confirmation
certificates.
Adult
Instructions (RCIA)
Any
adults who have not made 1st Communion or Confirmation or those
wishing to investigate the possibility of being baptized, please
contact the Rectory. Special Classes are available for adults at a
time that is convenient with your work schedule. All of us should
attempt to encourage them to step forward and assist them during
the process.
Ministry
to the sick
Urgent
calls will be responded to at any time, unless the hospital has a
Catholic Chaplain. Parishioners who through sickness or old age
are unable to attend Mass may receive Communion at home. Kindly
call the Rectory to make arrangements for a Priest or
Extraordinary Ministers Of Holy Communion to bring the Blessed
Sacrament to your home and to make arrangements for the Priest to
administer the Sacrament of the sick.
