Baptism is one of the seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church — it marks the beginning of one’s Christian journey. It is an important milestone in the life of a Catholic and a significant moment of grace. Infant baptism, in particular, is a cherished tradition in the Church as it symbolises the welcoming of a new faithful into the Catholic community.
The baptism ceremony involves pouring water over the infant’s head, accompanied by the Trinitarian formula of, “I baptise you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” This act symbolises the washing away of original sin and the welcoming of the child into the Christian community.

Godparents, who act as spiritual mentors, must also be prepared and willing to fulfil their role in guiding the child in their faith journey.

Thus, infant baptism is not only a joyous occasion but also an essential part of the faith journey.
The Infant Baptism Ministry in St. Anne’s Church plays a vital role in the parish’s mission to spread the Good Word and bring young souls closer to Christ. It is through this ministry that parents, godparents, and the community of faithful pledge to guide and support the newly baptised child in their spiritual journey.
We aim to guide and nurture these children in their walk of faith with Jesus Christ — which, through the preparation of parents and godparents, the baptism ceremony and the ongoing support and guidance, the Church will achieve.
