BAPTISM
We welcome all people to become part of the family of God through Baptism. Baptisms are celebrated at the end of Mass on weekends. Parents may request baptism for their child by calling the rectory to schedule a preparation class for infant Baptism. Baptism preparation for school aged children will take approximately eight months. Adults who have not previously been baptized into any Christian faith are invited to explore the Catholic faith through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. Please contact the rectory for further information.
MARRIAGE
Couples requesting marriage in the church should contact the parish at least six months prior to the anticipated date. Weddings are not celebrated during Advent or Lent.
EUCHARIST TO THE HOMEBOUND
The homebound are valued members of our parish community. Any individuals who are unable to attend Mass and wish to receive Holy Communion should contact the rectory.
NEW PARISH MEMBERS: All adult Catholics should be registered in a parish community. To register, please contact the rectory.

First Reconciliation/Eucharist:
This sacrament is celebrated by all 2nd grade children. Preparing children to celebrate a sacrament for the first time is an awesome and challenging responsibility.
Confirmation - Grade 10:
Confirmation preparation is designed for the responsible and mature student with recent involvement in parish life. Candidates should be ready to commit to the process. This class helps an individual confront questions and answers regarding faith, relationships, morality, priorities, family and future.

Adult education opportunities for personal spiritual growth are available throughout the year. Advent and Lent provide special opportunities to explore and deepen our faith through seasonal offerings. Other education/discussion groups have been formed as needed. Watch the church bulletins for new additions, dates, and times!
RCIA, Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults:
This is open to all people seeking full communion with the Catholic Church. Come and explore the faith! Please call the rectory for information on our welcoming ministry.
