​Baptisms (also called Christenings)

Baptisms are very special events - as those being baptised are given God's promises through the symbol of water.  In baptism, children or adults are officially welcomed into the Family of God - the church! 

To enquire about booking a baptism, please contact Sue Rigby on 07493 523810 or email her on: [email protected]

If you live in our Parish or have a strong connection with St Bartholomew's, you are welcome to find out more about a baptism for yourself or your children.  We take baptisms seriously (and joyfully!) and you may be asked to take part in Baptism Preparation.  You may need to come to our Sunday services.  (At the Baptism you will make promises to keep coming!)  Please use the 'Contact Us' page to get in touch and come to an 11.00 am Sunday Service.

Below is a slideshow of a Christening held on Sunday 16th February 2020.  Parents Tim and Claire Hordley presented their children Charles and Aubrey to be baptised.  It was a lovely service and the children were wonderful.
