Important Notes

If the child's parents have been through the Baptism preparation programme  within the last 2 years, they need not attend meetings, however decisions will be  made at the second session about the readings and hymns for the afternoon  baptism service and you may wish to attend in order to contribute to these  decisions.

Times of Masses are 8.30 am, 10.30 am and 5.00 pm on Sunday.

There is no fee for Baptism but it is the custom to make an offering to the priests. This can be given to the priest at the Baptism or to one of the catechists beforehand.

Please obtain an application form from the Parish Office. 
Complete as much of the form as you are able and return to the Parish Office as soon as possible. Thank You.
