Sacraments of Initiation - Baptism

There is no greater status than becoming a son, or daughter of God!

Baptisms for Babies and Young Children

We are most pleased to be able to celebrate this first of the Sacraments of Initiation with you! Due to the COVID 19 Virus, a current schedule is not published at this time. Please contact Deacon Don to schedule your baptism 734-464-1222 ext 324

Both parents are expected to attend a Baptism class.  Deacon Don will provide information about the class when your baptism date is scheduled.

Baptisms for Older Children, Teens & Adults

For older children, teens and adults take on a different nature as the person themselves, and not the parents, or guardians, are the ones learning and experiencing the sacrament. For these we suggest the process of Becoming Catholic (the RCIA) for children, teens, or adults.

A Bit about Baptism

“Baptism erases original sin and, by the grace of Jesus Christ, directs us back to God.”

Baptism is one of the Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation & Eucharist. We call them that because in ancient times they were packaged as a unified experience. They all share a commonality of welcoming, gathering, initiating & sending out.
