Baptism

Congratulations on your choice to celebrate one of the greatest gifts you can share with another person: the gift of Faith.
In order to begin the preparations for the baptism, please read and complete the forms below and contact Lisa Utz at the parish office (lisa.utz@archbalt.org). Baptisms will not be scheduled until all forms have been completed and returned, and class has been fulfilled. 

**Please note: By canon law, you must be a registered member of St. Bartholomew’s in order for us to celebrate a baptism. If you are not currently an active and registered member, please take a moment to do so.  REGISTRATION-FORM-

If you currently belong to another parish, but are requesting to have your baptism take place at St. Bartholomew’s,  a letter of permission from your current parish is required. You can obtain this permission by contacting the parish office of your current parish.

Parents are required to attend a preparation class held on the first Monday of each month at 6:30 in the Parish Center. The classes may be attended before the child is born. Please contact Lisa Utz at the Parish Center 410-239-8881 for registration information and scheduling.
