Baptism Request
Welcome! By Submitting a Baptism Request you are not only providing information that would help us get to know you and welcome you to our community a little better, but you are also acknowledging the following process:
1. Please complete and submit this form in one session. Since this page does not have a "save" feature before submitting, if you browse away from this page before clicking on submit, you will lose all entered information. If it happens, you will have to start from the begining.
2. Complete the baptism registration form, as fully and neatly as you can.
3. Parents and godparents must participate in the baptismal preparation class which is held the second Tuesday in English and first Saturday in Spanish. These sessions are offered to help parents and godparents understand their commitment in bringing up their child in the faith. Please call the parish office to sign up for the class.
4. If godparents are not registered parishioners at St. Joseph, please have them request a letter of good standing from their parish.
5. After both parents and godparents have completed the class and turned in all required paperwork, schedule the celebration by contacting the parish office. Baptisms occur once a month, English on the First Saturday and Spanish on the second Saturday.
6. There is no charge for a baptism. It is customary however, for an offering to be made. This is at the discretion of the family, knowing that your donation supports the work of our parish.
7. Regarding Godparents/Sponsors: For a person to act as a sponsor for baptism, he or she must be at least sixteen years old, must have already received all the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Eucharist), and must be living in a way that demonstrates that one's faith is strong enough to be able to fulfill the responsibilities involved with being a sponsor. A sponsor who is married must be married in accordance with the laws of the Church (cf.CIC,can.874).
8. Follow up after submission: Please contact the office after you have submitted a Baptism request online.
This online form does not guarantee a Baptism slot--you need to accomplish all the requirements first and come to the office to schedule the Baptism.
