Baptism
Infant Baptism
 
Arrangements for celebrating the Sacrament of Baptism may be made by calling the rectory at
262-338-5600. Generally baptisms are celebrated during one of the weekend Masses.
 
Parents and Godparents are invited to attend the Baptismal preparation classes before your child is baptized.  This year classes will be held November 18, 2012, January 20, March 17, May 19, July 21 and September 15, 2013 from 6:30 - 9:00 PM.  All classes are held at St. Mary's in the church except the July 21 class, which will be held at Holy Angels in the Church.  No pre-registration is necessary.
 
For a baptism class in Spanish contact Karen in the parish office, 262-338-5600. 
 
For children age seven and above please call the parish office at 262-338-5600.
 
Adult Baptism
 
The RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) is a spiritual journey of faith for those who wish to become Catholic.  This rite is for those who have not been baptized.  The RCIA is more than a simple process of pouring the water and saying the words of baptism.  It is a time of inquiry, discovering where God is calling the individual.  This process is a time of learning what the Catholic Church is all about and how to live as a Catholic Christian.  It is a time of preparation for the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist.  The RCIA process is a time of spiritual growth.
 
If you are being "tapped on the shoulder" by God to begin or continue your spiritual journey through the RCIA process email Terri Schiller tmschiller@stmaryparishwb.org or call 262-338-5600.  The RCIA process at St. Mary's is ongoing, so now is a good time to begin.
