Please call the parish office at 732-493-4411 to discuss Baptism.

Baptism is the sacrament by which the Christian community welcomes new members. We believe that Christian Initiation is the responsibility of the entire Christian community. "It takes a village ... to raise a Christian!"

To schedule a Baptism for an infant (birth to 7 years old),  please call the parish office. You can begin the registration process at any time during your pregnancy ... there is no timeline!

We ask that parents requesting Baptism be registered in our parish community and that both godparents be fully initiated, practicing Roman Catholics. Baptismal Preparation sessions will be scheduled with each family.

We ask that parents requesting Baptism be registered in our parish community and that both Godparents be fully initiated, practicing Roman Catholics. Baptismal Preparation sessions will be scheduled with each family beginning in September for Baptisms taking place in October and after.  We baptize children on the first and third Sundays of the month at 12:30 p.m.

We do not baptize anyone during the holy season of Lent, because Lent is the season for preparation for Baptisms of both children and adults.

If you have a child over the age of 7 who desires Baptism in the Roman Catholic Church, the Church has an initiation process called the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults for Children, sometimes known as OCIA for Children. The process is normally at least two (2) full liturgical years of preparation. Should you require any further assistance, call the Parish Office at 732-493-4411 or Deacon Bill Zapcic at 732-539-7507.
