Baptism

In the United Church of Christ, baptism is a sacrament and the ceremony is held during the worship service. We baptize infants, children, and adults. 
When you present your infant or child for baptism, you make vows on their behalf. They may choose to affirm their baptismal vows during their teenage years through Confirmation. 

In baptism, vows are exchanged between the baptized or their parent or guardian and the congregation. Therefore, at least one parent or grandparent needs to be an active member of First Parish Church to have your child baptized here.

If you would like to have your child baptized (or to be baptized yourself), or if you have questions, please contact our church office to arrange a meeting with our pastor: 207-363-3758.
