The Baptism team needs help! We need extra hands to help with Sunday Baptisms. It will not take a lot of your time and I promise you will find it rewarding.
Time/Talent Needs: Baptismal Ministers provide a climate of hospitality for the parents of the babies coming for baptism, as well as their relatives and friends. These ministers also assist the priest or deacon as necessary.
Qualifications: A sense of hospitality. An ability to make others feel comfortable and welcome. A love for children. Training will be provided on the baptismal ritual and theology. And the opportunity to observe a couple of Sunday afternoon baptisms.
Level of Commitment: Baptismal Ministers are scheduled in teams of 2 based on their availability. Baptisms take place every other Sunday afternoon at 1:30 PM except during the Lenten season. This amounts to attending a baptism once every six weeks.
