Baptisms

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20

In Baptism, we enter into the mystery and promise of life in Jesus Christ, his life, death and resurrection. We are also baptised into relationship with all God’s people, into a community, the Church.

St John's is passionate about following Jesus' word and preparing people of all ages for baptism.

When can I have my child baptised?

We welcome you, your child, your family and friends into this community. Baptisms take place during worship at our welcoming and friendly 9:30am and 5:00pm services, on the first Sunday of each month.

We also ask baptism families to join us for worship prior to, and in preparation for, the baptism service.

Adult Baptism

We also baptise adults of every age. Please come to a service and discuss with Revd. Sawyer

About Naming Services

Naming services, although different to baptisms, in a similar way give thanks for the child, the gift of new life and the blessing of a new member of the family. Often, those who are unsure of baptism or do not have a religious identity will choose to have a naming service. Here at St John’s we would be more than happy to provide a naming service for you and your child.
