Baptism
Parents wishing to have their child baptised are asked to make an appointment to see the
priest at the Parish. If you are residing outside the Parish of St. Anne Church and do not
attend Mass at the church you will be asked to contact your Parish Priest to request
permission for your child's baptism to be celebrated at St. Anne Church, Westby.
At an initial meeting, the meaning and purpose of Baptism will be looked at. You are asked not to choose godparents until you have met with the Parish Priest. The preparation will continue over a few sessions, during this time a date for your child's baptism will be fixed.

preparation will be available through the Parish bulletin in January 2018 or please email
