ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
Baptism
Welcome to the St. Rose of Lima Baptism Program!  The entire Parish shares in the joy of your child, and is privileged to participate in bringing a new Christian into the Church.  The Baptism Program is coordinated by Deacon Joe and Julia Persinger. 
      To arrange a baptism or for any questions, please contact Julia Persinger
at 973-921-9867 or 
baptism@stroseshorthills.org
      Baptisms are normally celebrated twice a month; once at the 11:00am or the 12:30pm Mass, and once at a 2:00pm Community Baptism service.  Baptisms are not celebrated during Lent.
      Couples are encouraged to contact the Baptism Office when they are pregnant or have recently given birth.  All couples presenting a child (or children) for Baptism are required to be registered at St. Rose, and will have an interview with Deacon Joe and Julia.  Parents presenting their first child for Baptism are also required to attend a Baptism Preparation class at St. Rose.
