Thank you for your desire to have your child baptized at St. Albert the Great Catholic Church.
As a community we welcome new members of our faith with great joy. In order to best accommodate the baptism of your child we ask you to complete the form below as accurately and completely as possible.
Baptism is a Sacrament which brings a new life into the body of Christ, the church, and as such is appropriately a communal event. Therefore, although a baptism may be performed at any time, the preferred time to conduct a baptism in the Catholic Church is as part of the communal celebration of the Mass.
There is no charge for any baptism performed during the celebration of the Mass. However, a $50 donation is suggested for the clergy performing the baptism.
Baptisms outside of Mass require a fee to cover the cost of using the church facilities and a stipend for the clergy performing the baptism. The fee schedule is as follows and must be paid before a baptism will be scheduled:
Parents and Godparents
Parents and godparents who have not attended a baptism class must do so before a baptism will be scheduled.
Please note: there is a $10 fee for class materials, payable at signin.
If either the parents or godparents are from another parish or reside outside the Diocese of Reno, you must provide a certificate or letter from your parish, signed by your pastor, attesting to your attendance at a Baptismal Preparation class.
Please ensure that all fees (if required) have been paid before the Baptismal Preparation class.
PARENTS: For the Baptismal Preparation Class, please bring a COPY of the child's Birth Certificate.
It may take a moment for your information to be submitted.
