Baptisms
Baptism (sometimes called a Christening) marks the beginning of a person’s life as a member of the church – God’s people.
Baptism services for babies and young children are normally held at 3.00pm on the fourth Sunday of the month at the Minster, with a maximum of six families involved. We also hold baptism services at the associated churches, and arrange these dates individually.
Baptisms take place after a home visit by a member of the clergy and a Baptism Team member. Those enquiring about baptism should initially contact the Parish Centre. You will be put in contact with a member of the clergy who will discuss the options with you.
Please contact us if you are interested in having a baptism in the Minster or in one of our associated churches. If you live outside our parish there may be some formalities which we’ll explain – they are not complicated.
