Baptism

"Holy Baptism is the sacrament by which God adopts us and makes us members of Christ's body, the Church, and inheritors of the kingdom of heaven" -- The Book of Common Prayer,

pg 858


In the Episcopal Church, baptism is a community celebration as we welcome the newest member to the family of faith. At Grace and St. Stephen's we celebrate baptism five times each year. In 2025-2026, the dates for baptism are


All Saints Day (November 2, 2025)

Baptism of our Lord (January 11, 2026)

Easter Vigil (April 4, 2026)

Pentecost (May 24, 2026)

The Feast of St. Stephen (observed)
