Pre-Jordan - (Baptismal Preparation)

Baptisms are celebrated during our weekend Masses for infants. Parents and Godparents are required to attend our Pre-Jordan program.

Recognizing that parents have the primary responsibility to pass the Catholic faith on to their children, a team of parishioners share their faith experience with new parents and godparents, offering support and encouragement in preparation for the Sacrement of Baptism. The sessions are informal and afford the opportunity to meet other new parents. If you have a gift for sharing your faith and a passion for parenting, this ministry is for you.

Baptisms for Adults

Baptism for adults is through our RCIA program. The RCIA, the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, is for adults who are not baptized. This ministry also serves those who have been and desire to receive the Sacraments of Eucharist and/or Confirmation. A team of people share their faith and support candidates on their spiritual journey. Hospitality and willingness to share your faith are the important gifts needed for this ministry.

Pre-Cana (Marriage Preparation)

Marriages may take place on Friday evening, Saturday afternoon or during any of our weekend Masses. All engaged couples must attend our Pre-Cana program at least six months before their wedding.

In the Pre-Cana program, a team of couples share their marriage experiences with couples preparing for the Sacrament of Marriage. Members of the team give presentations on various aspects of marriage and spiritually support engaged couples as they journey towards the sacrament.

If you have a gift for sharing and a love for marriage, consider joining this team.
