Baptisms (also known as Christenings)
If you would like to have your child baptised at All Saints with St Frideswyde, then please fill out the form at the foot of this page and we will contact you shortly.
We have an open baptism policy. This begins from a belief that baptism is a free gift from God, graciously given to all who would receive it. Each family in our parish wishing to have their child baptised is visited and the meaning and commitments of baptism explained. If families prefer not to make the vows and commitments we offer a Service of Thanksgiving. We offer a warm welcome, and to help nurture and support and help families in their care of babies and children we have ‘Little Saints’ that meet on a Thursday morning and Sunday Club.
Baptisms will normally take place within the 10.30 service each month.
Families will be visited in their homes before the baptism service so that the content and meaning of the service and vows can be discussed. Then families make their decision whether to proceed and complete an application for baptism. God parents need to be baptised.
