Baptism

Baptism (also called Christening) is an amazing gift from God! To become part of the Body of Christ, the Church, and to be given God’s grace by the Holy Spirit! It is a promise of God’s love for us, for ever!

Everyone who lives in the parish boundaries (see below or put your postcode in here to find out!), or who attends St Peter’s church regularly, is welcome to be baptised or have your family member baptised at St Peter’s, aged 1 or 100, there’s no limit! We will talk you through the meaning and practicalities of Baptism. Baptism takes place during our Sunday worship at the 10.30am Parish Mass. There is no charge for Baptism.
