At St Agnes' we welcome anyone for Christian baptism whether as an adult or parents wishing to bring their child. After a short preparation the service is arranged to suit you and your family.
Your baby's Christening Holy Baptism, or Christening as it is also known, is the act of worship and commitment by which babies and adults become Christian. This celebration of initiation into the Christian faith is a joyful celebration of God's saving power and his amazing love for us. It is through this love and through the love of his Son Jesus Christ that we are made his children through Baptism.
The Sacrament of Baptism is celebrated during the Sunday Parish Eucharist. If you would like to be baptised or bring your child for baptism please read the information on the leaflet and contact the parish priest to make an appointment.
Godparents Find out more about the role of a Godparent on this page or you can use the link on the right to download the leaflet.
The Baptism of Adults Adult baptism is usually combined with the Sacrament of Confirmation and the preparation process will be significantly different. Adult baptism is the result of a journey - a journey which begins with our search for God and does not end with baptism but continues throughout our life. If you are seeking adult baptism please contact the parish priest.
