Pre-Baptism Preparation

The Armagh Diocesan Pastoral Plan 2015-2020 includes the following objective in relation to Baptism: “Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments.  Appropriate preparation is vital for the proper understanding and celebration of Baptism, so we strongly encourage each parish to have a pre-Baptism team to meet with parents and godparents.  Appropriate formation and training will be provided for these teams.”

A pre-Baptism team is now in place in our parish.  A pre-Baptism meeting for parents and godparents will be held each month.
