Baptism

Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in  the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua), and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word."    
(Catechism of the Catholic Church 1213)

How to Baptize?

Please stop by either Parish Office and pick up a Pre-Baptismal packet. Dates of classes and Baptisms will be given during interview with the Priests or Deacon.

Upcoming Baptismal Preparation Classes

Please call Sandy at (760) 791-8742 or at the Parish Offices to schedule an appointment with either priest or deacon.
