Baptism

The Sacrament of Baptism is the first Sacrament of Initiation. It involves ritual washing with water. Water is commonly known as a symbol of life and cleansing – that’s what it means in Baptism too where water is poured over a person’s head. This action is a symbol of washing away Original Sin and rising to new life in Christ and marks the beginning of a person’s participation in the mission of the Church.

If you are interested in baptising your child, please read the Frequently Asked Questions before following the two-step process below to start your enquiry. Your enquiry will be actioned as soon as possible with a phone call after which you will be sent a link to the full registration form. Please note that due to time constraints on our priests, we normally do baptisms at 10am on Saturdays at OLR church, Caloundra.
