Baptisms During Lent - St. Charles Borromeo Church

At It Is Well Living Church, we believe that baptism is a sacred ritual that holds deep meaning and significance within the Christian faith. This Lenten season, we invite you to join us at St. Charles Borromeo Church for baptisms, as we celebrate the journey of faith and new beginnings.

The Significance of Baptism During Lent

Lent is a period of forty days of prayer, fasting, and reflection that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends with the celebration of Easter. It is a time of preparation and repentance, as we remember the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Baptism during Lent holds special significance as it symbolizes the cleansing of sins and the start of a renewed spiritual journey.

How to Participate in Baptisms

If you are considering baptism during Lent, we welcome you with open arms. Here are the steps to participate:

  1. Contact St. Charles Borromeo Church: Reach out to our friendly staff at the church office or visit our website to express your interest in baptism. We will guide you through the process and provide all the necessary information you need.
