Sacramental Life

Sacrament of Baptism

The beautiful shell used for the sacrament of Batism was imported from the Philippines by the Tarres and Yadao Families.

Baptism preparation is mandatory for first-time parents or for those who have not had preparation for other children in the last five years. For other children of catechism age, parents may opt for putting their children in catechism, with a special supplement for Baptism or the Rite of Christian Initiation for Children (for those Grades 2-9). For those Grades 10-12, and all other adults, they are invited to take the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults. Contact: Parish Office 204-889-3248 or email stcharls@mymts.net
