Baptism
Holy Baptism is the sacrament by which God adopts us as his children and makes us new members of Christ’s Body, the Church, and inheritors of the kingdom of God.
Holy Baptism is especially appropriate at the Easter Vigil, on the Day of Pentecost, in August, on All Saints’ Day or the Sunday after All Saints’ Day, and on the Feast of the Baptism of our Lord (the First Sunday after the Epiphany).
This Sacrament is administered to adults who are ready to publicly affirm their faith in Jesus Christ as Savior
and Lord, and their intention to dedicate their lives to his service.
Baptism may also be administered to children of baptized Christians, who have demonstrated that they are ready to carry out the promise that they will bring up their child in the family of the Church.
Prior to the sacrament being performed, all parents will be asked to meet with one of our priests
and to attend Sunday services.
Please e-mail Maria Love, maria@saint-johns.org, or call the church office at 619-422-4141 to make these arrangements.
