Thanksgiving
is a special
occasion to give thanks
to God for the child. It is held
during the All Age Service and there are usually a number
of families giving thanks for their child at the same time,
so don't worry about being out at the front on your own!
There is no obligation on the parents to attend church or
be members of the church. A certificate is given to say
that the service has taken place and you or your child can
decide later whether to get baptised. If you would like
more information, please contact Sue
Jones, Parish Administrator for more details.
This
service is also held at the All Age Service and you are
surrounded by your friends and family. Parents and Godparents
are expected to declare their faith. You are promising to
bring the child up as a Christian in a Christian family
and this promise should not be made lightly. We have a short
preparation course for everyone considering baptism. Baptism
is open to anyone of any age, so if you haven't been baptised
yourself and would like more information, please contact
Sue Jones, Parish Administrator
for more details.
