Baptisms and Thanksgivings

Baptisms

At St Mary’s we welcome the baptism of infants whose parents are willing to express faith in Jesus Christ. We are also pleased to offer thanksgivings for infants (see below).

We also celebrate adult baptism, where those being baptised are given the opportunity to give a personal testimony of faith in Jesus Christ. If you would like to know more about baptism at St Mary’s please contact Rev Matt on matt.trendall.mk@gmail.com or 01908 582839.

Thanksgiving

We welcome families who would like to give thanks for their new baby before God, their families and friends and the Church. Thanksgivings are becoming more common for those parents who would like to mark the wonder of a new arrival in the family but feel that in all conscience they cannot express faith in Jesus Christ.  If you would like to know more about thanksgiving at St Mary’s please contact Rev Matt on matt.trendall.mk@gmail.com or 01908 582839.
