Baptism Preparation
Preparación para Bautismo

Welcome to St. Charles Parish!

Please download the Baptism Registration form (below), fill it out and send it in. We will contact you about upcoming Baptism date(s) and classes. Questions? Contact Leif Kehrwald, Pastoral Administrator, lkehrwald@stcharlespdx.org, 503-351-9889.

Baptism Preparation Requirements

Parents must participate in the two or three sessions that lead up to the celebration of Baptism here in the Parish. Or, you may participate in sessions at another Catholic Church and provide us with a letter on the church's letterhead, signed by the pastor or the staff person responsible for that preparation, stating the sessions have been completed.

PREPARATION MUST HAPPEN BEFORE THE BAPTISM 

You must be registered in the Parish or have the permission of the pastor of your home parish to have the baptism here.

One godparent (at least) must be a confirmed and practicing Catholic.  The other godparent may be listed as a Christian Witness, but must be baptized in a Christian tradition.

Baptism is celebrated within the celebration of the Sunday Liturgy on two or three occasions each year, usually September, January, and May. Contact Leif Kehrwald (see info above) for dates.

If the child is age seven or older, s/he will be required to participate in faith formation classes for children/youth.

Bienvenido a la Parroquia de San Carlos!

Descargue el formulario de Registro de Bautismo (abajo), llénelo y envíelo. Nos comunicaremos con usted sobre las próximas fechas y clases de Bautismo. ¿Preguntas? Póngase en contacto con Leif Kehrwald, administrador pastoral, lkehrwald@stcharlespdx.org, 503-351-9889.

Requisitos para la preparación del bautismo

Los padres deben participar en las dos o tres sesiones que conducen a la celebración del Bautismo aquí en la Parroquia. O bien, puede participar en las sesiones en otra Iglesia Católica y proporcionarnos una carta con membrete official de la iglesia, firmada por el pastor o la persona del personal responsable de esa preparación, indicando que las sesiones han sido completadas.

LA PREPARACIÓN DEBE SUCEDER ANTES DEL BAUTISMO

Debe estar registrado en la Parroquia o tener el permiso del pastor de su parroquia para tener el bautismo aquí.

Un padrino (al menos) debe ser un católico confirmado y practicante. El otro padrino puede aparecer como un testigo cristiano, pero debe ser bautizado en una tradición cristiana.

El bautismo se celebra dentro de la celebración de la Liturgia Dominical en dos o tres ocasiones cada año, generalmente en septiembre, enero y mayo. Póngase en contacto con Leif Kehrwald (ver información arriba) para las fechas.

Si el niño tiene siete años o más, se le pedirá que participe en clases de formación de fe para niños / jóvenes.​
