Baptisms

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

We highly recommend that parents prepare for their child’s baptism during pregnancy as children should be baptized promptly after birth (first weeks) or within the first year after birth.

Godparent regulations for the Catholic Church: A child can have 1 or 2 godparents. Godparents must have received the sacrament of Confirmation. A godparent who is married must be married by the church. A person in a civil marriage or living with someone cannot serve as a godparent.
