Baptism – Overview
The Sacrament of Baptism is the first Sacrament of Initiation. It involves ritual washing with water. Water is commonly known as a symbol of life and cleansing – that’s what it means in Baptism too. Water is poured over a person’s head (or the person can be immersed in water). This action is a symbol of washing away Original Sin, rising to new life in Christ and marks the beginning of a person’s participation in the mission of the Church.
While many people are baptised as young children, adult baptisms regularly take place across Brisbane Archdiocese. If you are interested in baptising your child or being baptised yourself, please contact our parish office on Phone: 07 3299 2000 or by email: [email protected] alternatively please make your enquiry by following the steps above.
For more information about Baptism in the Catholic Church please refer to the The Cathedral of St Stephens website.
