According to Fort Worth diocesan guidelines, baptismal preparation is required for parents requesting baptism for their children, and strongly encouraged for godparents/sponsors. The parish provides quarterly preparation classes on the first Saturday of January, April, July, and October beginning at 9:00 am in the Meeting Room of the Parish Office Complex. Please contact the parish office at (940)-759-2500 to register. You may also attend a baptismal preparation class at another parish if they offer a time more convenient for you. Below are upcoming class dates at nearby parishes:
Saint Peter in Lindsay, Texas: For the specific date and to sign up, contact their Parish Office at 940-668-7609
Saint Mary in Gainesville, Texas: To sign up, contact their Parish Office at 940-665-5395.
Once preparation has been completed, parents can request a date for baptism, either during any regularly-scheduled mass or at the Group Baptism, which is the 2nd Sunday of each month following the 10:30 am mass. Please note that a Birth Certificate or Verification of Birth Facts is required for all children to be baptized. Additionally, a Baptismal information Form is needed and can be found below.
