Anybody living in the Parish is welcome to be baptized at St John's Church; babies, children and adults. With a large number of seats and a balcony if necessary, Baptisms are a joyful celebration and we welcome you and your family and friends to celebrate your baptism here.

Baptism services are either held during the Sunday morning service at 10:30am, or at 12pm after the morning service has ended. Specific dates are arranged upon discussion with a Minister.
