According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, baptism is the first of our seven sacraments. Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life.

Through Baptism we are freed from sin, and reborn as children of God.

We welcome all who seek Baptism in the Catholic church.

Families must be registered Parishioners of Our Lady of Lourdes or St. Joseph's Church.

Please contact the Rectory for more information.
