Choosing, planning and going to a Christening? . . . Begin Here

Christening (sometimes called Baptism) takes place on the second Sunday of the month at a midday service and we hold the service in one of our two church buildings. Christening is a welcoming of new members in to the Christian faith, often (but not always - as the photo above shows) as small children, where their parents and godparents will speak for them and make promises on their behalf. Baptisms are happy occasions where there is a sense of meeting God in an atmosphere of celebration and thanks. There may be several families gathered together, and we can baptise more than one candidate at the Christening service. Our parish has a team who run a preparation evening prior to the service at which initial questions are dealt with and informal discussion is held.
