Holy Baptism
“Holy Baptism is full initiation by water and the Holy Spirit into Christ's Body the Church. The bond which God establishes in Baptism is indissoluble.” (Book of Common Prayer, p. 298)
Holy Baptism is one of the two great sacraments of the Church, the other being Holy Communion. Both of these are sacraments given to us by Our Lord Jesus Christ, who told his disciples to “go into all the world and baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19-20). Baptism, which includes the anointing with Sacred Chrism, draws the newly-baptized into the Body of Christ, names them as a beloved child of God, and enlarges and enriches the Church.
All interested in baptism are required to meet with our Rector, Reverend Annie K Jung, for baptism.
If you are interested in exploring baptism at St. Andrew's, either for yourself or for your child, please contact our office at admin@standrewsnola.com
