Baptisms

Main content start

The sacrament of Baptism, historically a Christian rite of initiation, is available at Memorial Church for children and adults twice per academic year during the Fall and Spring Quarters. It is offered during University Public Worship and is not a private ritual or ceremony. More than a momentary act in one’s life, Baptism is also considered a beginning to a lifelong spiritual pilgrimage.

Upcoming baptism dates:

  • May 26, 2024 (Spring Quarter) -Registration is now closed.
  • December 1, 2024 (Fall Quarter)

 

Those interested in a Catholic Baptism in Memorial Church, should view information at the Catholic Community at Stanford website and contact Chaplain Teresa Pleins.
