Baptisms

We would be delighted to baptise your child in the church before God and to commit ourselves to help to pray for and care for your child.

A member of the congregation visits each family, if they are happy to be visited, before the baptism service. The purpose of this is to provide a link between the church and the family and to give you an opportunity to ask about anything that you are not sure of. It is particularly important for families who are making their first contact with St James’s at this time.

We encourage you to bring your children to join us in our regular worship services and activities when they are old enough.

The baptism service is discussed, and you will also be asked if you have a special hymn that if possible can be included in the service. You, your family and guests are invited to join us for coffee in the barn following the service.

We like to give all children a Children’s Bible at their baptism as this is the book around which our faith centres.

If you would like to be baptised as an adult, we are delighted that you are committing yourself to be a follower of Jesus and would love to hear from you.

Feel free to reach out using the contact form or get in touch via the details provided below.
