Baptism

Baptism is the sacrament which opens Christian life to us, initiates us into the church, and affirms us as sons and daughters of God. Parents of children being baptized are invited to affirm and strengthen their commitment to the Christian faith and the religious practices of the Church through a period of preparation. This preparation period offers parents a wonderful opportunity to assess their own understanding of the faith and to renew their commitment to our Christian Catholic way of life. 

Contact: Liz Steybe at 262-782-4575 x129 or [email protected].

St. Mary's Visitation Parish Baptism Notes
  • Those seeking to have children baptized should be registered, active members of St. Mary’s Visitation Parish.  If you are not currently a parish member,  visit the Grow with Us page for registration information. >>
  • Parents are encouraged to give careful attention to their choice of godparents. Although it is customary to have two godparents, only one is required. That primary godparent must be a confirmed, practicing Catholic. If there are two godparents, a second godparent can be Catholic or Non-Catholic, but must be a practicing Christian.
