Description |
Parents must be active Catholics and registered in the Parish for a minimum of four months before the Baptism date. Parents must first attend the pre-baptismal class that is given on the second Tuesday of each month. Notice, for the pre-baptismal class, you must first pre-register by contacting the parish office at (775) 782-2852. And you must call the parish if you cannot attend to cancel. You may have one or two godparents. At least one of the Godparents must be a practicing Catholic, baptized and confirmed. The Godparents must participate in the pre-baptismal class or should have a letter from their parish, stating that they have attended the pre-baptismal class and that they are practicing Catholics, if they do not belong to our parish. In order to baptize a baby whose parents belong to another parish, we need written permission from their parish priest. The suggested donation to Saint Gall is $50, paid prior to the baptism. No one will be denied the Sacrament because of financial difficulties. |
