Infant Baptism

You give your children many things - food, shelter, clothing, education, a loving home, and a caring family. But, it all begins with the gift of faith. Through Baptism, your child will belong to Christ forever. To begin the process at St. Bernard of Clairvaux, please follow these steps:

1. Register for Baptism:
   To begin the process, please complete the Infant Baptism Registration Form.

2. Download the Infant Baptism Information Packet:
   You can find a link for the packet under Documents. Please read thoroughly.

3. Register for Baptism Class:
   Please call the Parish Office at 480-661-9843 or e-mail Nancy Boettcher atnboettcher@stboc.orgto register for the class date you wish to attend – class dates are in the Infant Baptism Information Packet. Classes may be taken at another parish, but a certificate of completion is necessary for paperwork.

4. Reserve a Date for the Baptism:
   As soon as you have completed your registration for Baptism and notified Nancy of the class that you would like to attend, you may reserve a baptismal date. Baptismal dates are also in the packet.
