Baptisms are held celebrated on the 4th Sunday of the month immediately following the Noon mass. The Baptism preparation class is required prior to the Sacrament, for the first child being Baptized at St. Gabriel's only.
Letters of recommendation are needed from the Godparent's Parish. If you are a parishioner of St. Gabriel's and looking for a recommendation letter, we issue letters to members of our parish who are registered for at least three months, regularly attend Mass and who have received the Sacraments. Regular use of envelopes indicates attendance at Mass. Sponsors are to be Baptized, Confirmed, and if married, have done so in conformity with the laws of the Catholic Church.
If you are not a parishioner of St. Gabriel's, you must have permission from your Pastor for the Baptism to occur at St. Gabriel's.
To schedule a Baptism, or request your letter of recommendation, please call the rectory at 716-668-4017.
