Forming disciples to know, love, and serve God.
Baptism is one of the most important sacraments, when your child receives the Holy Spirit and joins the family of God. We are so glad you are seeking this sacrament for your child.
Here is some important information:
1. Preparation:
Please contact the Parish Office if you are seeking Baptism for your child. We will respond with the information needed and set up a meeting date/time for Baptism Preparation.
There is great information on the online platform Formed about Baptism.
You can find the instructions to access Formed material here.
2. Date: Please let us know of when you would like to have the Baptism. We need to make sure Fr. Brandon is available before we can confirm the date. Also, let us know if you want to have the baptism during Mass or after Mass.
3. Kindly fill out the
Baptism Registration form and
email it to parish@stjosephredwing.org (or mail it to the office 426 8th Street, Red Wing, MN 55066.) We MUST receive this form one week before the date of the Baptism.
4. Your baby must be dressed in white the day of the Baptism (after watching the course it will be clear why this requirement is important.)
5. Cost: Baptisms are celebrated at no cost.
6. Godparent requirements:
