Baptism, FH Communion and Confirmation Classes: About Us

BAPTISM
If you wish to have your child/children baptised, you need to email the parish office with your home address and confirming that either or both parents are baptised Catholic, that your godparents are baptised Catholic.  If your godparents are baptised in another denomination they would be known as a witness, you must have at least one Catholic godparent.  You are expected to attend Mass regularly.
You will need to belong to the Church that you want your child to belong to.**
You will need to attend a meeting with a Catechist (teacher of the faith) and a Deacon.  They will fill out a form with you and may arrange a date for the Baptism.
*Proof/evidence of baptism is required.
** You must reside within the parish boundaries to have your child Baptised at Our Lady of the Angels.  The Parish of Our Lady of the Angels covers Nuneaton town centre and the surrounding areas of Caldecote, Weddington, St. Nicolas Park, Horeston Grange, Whitestone, Attleborough, Chilvers Coton and Stockingford. If you have any questions please contact the parish office.
