If this is your first child baptized at St. Stephen:

The Church teaches that parents are the primary educators of their child in the faith. In keeping with this belief, parents presenting an infant for Baptism for the first time must participate in a Baptismal preparation session. Baptismal preparation classes are offered at St. Stephen on the fourth Thursday of each month at 7:00 PM. Dates are subject to change.

To begin Baptism Prep class registration, please complete the Baptism Information Form. Please fill out the form as best you can and submit it electronically. Once our parish receives the completed form, Deacon Ken Zawadzki will contact you about setting up a Baptism preparation date.

If you've had other children baptized at St. Stephen:

If you previously have had other children baptized at St. Stephen, it is not necessary to attend another Baptism preparation session. To begin the Baptism process for a younger child, please fill out the online Baptism Information Form. Once our parish receives the completed form, Deacon Ken Zawadzki will contact you about setting up a Baptism date.
