Baptism
It is a great joy that we have regular baptisms here at St Faith’s, both for infants and adults. Those interested in baptism are invited to a baptism preparation evening, held alternatively at St Paul’s and St Faith’s. Here there is an opportunity to learn more about baptism and what it means.
After that, the clergy responsible for the baptism will arrange a one to one meeting, either at your home, or another suitable venue,
to discuss what will happen in the service, answer any questions and also to fix a date for the baptism.
