The birth or adoption of a child is a cause for celebration. Many people are
overcome by a sense of awe at the creation of new life and want to express
their thanks to God. This service provides an opportunity for parents and
families to give thanks for the birth or adoption of a child and to pray for
family life. It may be a private celebration at home or in hospital, or it may
be a public celebration in church, sometimes with a number of children.
This service is not the same as Baptism (sometimes called Christening),
which is the sacrament of initiation into membership of the Church, the Body
of Christ.
Please contact the parish priest if you would like to find out more about this
service.
