As a Catholic Christian Community we bring forth these guidelines regarding the Sacrament of infant Baptism. Since this is a sacrament
of initiation (introduction) to the Catholic Community the following must take place:
*The parents must be registered at Our Lady of Fatima, and be consistently seen attending Mass in this church.
*If this is the first child, parent (s) must attend a Baptismal Preparation class.
*Godparents must be Baptized, Confirmed, and practicing Catholics. One Godparent can be of a Protestant denomination. If for good reason Godparents are from out of town, or another Catholic church in town, a letter from their pastor is required to state they are practicing members in
good standing.
*A visitation with the priest or deacon is necessary before scheduling a date for the Baptism of the child.
*Those not registered in our parish must have written permission from their pastor to have their child Baptized in our church.
