In baptism, we thank God for his gift of life and publicly acknowledge his love.
In the Anglican Church it is common to baptise young children; this is sometimes
known as Christening.
Baptism is a 'sacrament', a holy ritual to symbolise grace, in the Christian tradition
that is traced back to Jesus himself being baptised in the river Jordan. Speak to
us if you are considering baptism or would like to arrange a Christening for your
child.
More detailed information about Christening and baptism is available on the Church
of England website
