Preparing for Baptism in the Episcopal Church

Accessible resource for clergy to give to new parents, new members, as they seek baptism

Parents who are not active church-goers or have no knowledge of the Episcopal Church often return to a church to have their child baptized. Many adults who never had a relationship with a faith community seek baptism when they join a congregation for the first time. As our society becomes more secular, those who enter our churches are neophytes in more ways than in previous generations.
