Infant Baptism
We strive to assist parents in their obligation to ensure that newborns are baptized in the first few weeks of life. Due to the happy fact that Assumption is blessed with so many large families, we are not able to schedule individual baptisms.
Baptisms according to the traditional Latin rite are celebrated on a fixed monthly schedule on the second weekend and fourth weekends of each month at 10 AM. Baptisms in the new rite are scheduled on a case-by-case basis. Out of fairness to all, requests for special times & dates are not allowed.
The children of families who live within the parish boundaries or those wishing to have the traditional Latin form of baptism may be baptized at the Church of the Assumption.
To schedule your child’s baptism, contact
Mrs. Laura Cooper. First-time parents are required to meet with Fr. Price prior to the baptism. Mrs. Cooper will assist you with the necessary paperwork and will arrange a meeting with Fr Price for first-time parents.
