Baptism FAQ's

FAQ's about Baptisms

Can I have a service of Baptism at St Mark or St Mary?
Yes, if you live in the parish. It is the right of everyone who wants to be baptized to be baptized in their parish church. We WELCOME all who are brought to the churches in our team for baptism (or christening) as infants, or who seek this sacrament for themselves, as children or adults

I don't live in the parish but would like a service of Baptism at your church. Is that possible?
If you live OUTSIDE the Parish, you should normally ask for baptism in the parish where you live, so that your local church will be able to offer you on-going support. If you feel there is a particular reason for your child to be baptized here, please give your reasons in a supporting letter. If we agree with your reasons, we will ask you to approach the vicar of your own parish, to seek his or her goodwill

How much does if cost?
There is NO FEE for baptism, it is God's free gift to all his people - However, we hope you will feel able to make an appropriate donation to enable the work of the church to continue
