Ministries and Outreach - Education and Formation

 

Baptismal Preparation - Parents seeking to have their child baptized are asked to contact the Pastoral Ministry Office to set up an interview. At this interview, one receives pertinent materials and information and can raise any questions as needed. For the first and second child, parents are asked to attend a class before the baptism. Team couples and members of the Cathedral staff discuss the role parents play in the faith life of their children and how this faith might be nurtured and provide a theological reflection on the Sacrament of Baptism.  MORE...
