The Sacrament of Baptism

Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word.

Catechism of the Catholic Church 1213
We provide a two step process for baptism preparation.

Step 1: We will meet with the family privately to discuss the baptism and to assist in getting the paperwork completed.

Step 2: There will be a baptism rite walk-through at the All Saints Church. The walk-through is scheduled based on the needs of the various families involved.

For baptism prep for English speaking parishioners, please either 1) send an email message to Deacon Robert at robert.rust@allsaintsknoxville.com or 2) leave a voice message on his phone at 474-8617.
