BAPTISMS

Baptism is a sacrament of the United Church of Canada. It uses water as a symbol of God's love and of our welcome within this church family.

​

Baptism takes place during a regular Sunday service. When children are baptized, their parents or godparents make promises before God and the congregation to raise them in the Christian faith.

​

Adults seeking baptism make the promises themselves. It's a significant commitment to bring a child to church on Sunday so, during a baptism, the congregation also pledges to support parents and their children, and to help with the Christian education of the children.

​

If you are considering having your child baptized at St. James, we ask that you join us for a service one Sunday morning to ensure that you feel welcome and at home in our midst.
