Holy Baptism is the sacrament by which one becomes a Christian, a member of the Body Christ, a partner with Christ in the world of saving the world, and an inheritor of the Kingdom of God.

It's an event of importance and celebration both for the individual Christian and for the whole church. Parents and godparents who present children for baptism discover that their participation has a profound effect on their own spiritual lives. Adults who come to be baptized experience this as a crucial step in their journey of faith.

Baptism for children is celebrated several times throughout the church year. Those seeking baptism for their children must attend a preparatory class. For times and dates, please contact Matthew Kulas, 617-536-0944.

Adults are most often baptized at the Easter Vigil. Adults contemplating baptism are usually required to attend the Inquirers' Class. This series is conducted twice a year, as announced in Trinity publications.
