One of the seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church.
A Gift from God for our Salvation; Baptism is one of the "three" Sacraments of Christian Initiation - Baptism, Confirmation and the Eucharist.
If you would like to have your child baptised at St Robert's, please speak to the priest after Mass. Note that we cannot arrange baptisms over the telephone nor by email.
We welcome parents who wish to have their child baptised at St Robert’s. As they will be required to promise that they will bring their child up in the faith, it is expected that at least one of the parents, if not both, are registered and practising members of the parish.
A new Baptism Seminar designed to help prepare parents for the baptism of their child will take place quarterly in the parish centre. All parents who apply to have their child baptised will be expected to attend the course. The course will not last more than 40 minutes.
Applications for infant baptism are available in the forms tray at the back of the church, to the right of the main door. Please note that it is not possible to arrange baptism over the ‘phone or by email - it is something to be arranged when you are attending Mass in consultation with the priest.
