In order to emphasise the importance of the choice to request the sacrament for their child, couples presenting children for the Sacrament of Baptism will be required to:-

• fill in the application form in person in the parish office;
• attend a preparation meeting;
• attend a weekend Mass prior to the baptism;
• finish with the baptism ceremony itself the following Saturday.  

Baptisms are now held on the second and fourth Saturday of each month at 2pm, with no more that three families at each ceremony. These new baptism arrangements have come into effect in St. Teresa’s Parish from January 2024.
