Sacrament of Baptism

We are delighted to join you in the Sacrament of Baptism. Our church is blessed with 3 deacons: Deacon Scot McCullough, Deacon Steve Moeller and Deacon Carlos Garcia. We are very fortunate to be able to perform baptisms on a schedule, which guarantee a celebrant. This is what we found the most effective to help our community.

To answer any and all questions regarding the sacrament of baptism, please register to attend a baptismal class if you have not done so within the past 5 years. If you have, but still have questions, please submit a "contact the deacons" form so that our deacons can answer your questions or schedule a time for you to meet with them.

If you are new to our parish and would like guidance with the sacrament of baptism, please contact our Sacraments Coordinator; Ellie Roche in the Parish office or send her an email at ellieroche@borromeoparish.com

Baptism steps:
