Baptisms

In order to baptize at St. Henry, parents must live within the boundaries of our parish and be registered with the parish.

Baptismal sessions are held the 1st Sunday of the month after the 10:00am Mass. This brief sessions will answer any questions you may have about the baptismal process for infants at St. Henry Parish. We highly recommend that parents attend the informaion session during pregnancy since children should be baptized prompltly after birth.

Godparent regulations for the Catholic Church (this universal law of the Church): A child can have 1 or 2 Christian godparents, though at least one must be Catholic. Catholic godparents must be baptized, confirmed, and have received 1st holy communion. Married Catholic godparents need to have been married by the church. A person in a civil marriage or living with someone cannot serve as a godparent.

Baptisms are normally scheduled for the last Saturday of each month in the chapel. There is no baptism fee.
