Sacrament of Baptism

Baptism is the first sacrament of Initiation.  Baptisms are celebrated during or after any of the Masses at Basilica.  Parents wising to have their child baptized are encouraged to contact the rector 1-2 months prior to the birth of your child. A pre-Baptism class is required for first-time parents. Call 507-452-5430 to set up a Baptism or class.  Parents must be registered parish members. To register as members click here.
