Baptism

If you live in the parish and wish to be baptised or to have a child baptised, please contact us at the Team Office by clicking the link to e-mail or phoning 01992 575570 to arrange an appointment so that someone can discuss what happens at a baptism service and help you plan your child's baptism.

Holy Baptism is offered in all the team churches, but as we are a small team covering services across a number of churches, the dates that baptisms are offered are planned in advance so that we can be as fair as possible to everyone.  The planned dates for 2011 are: 

 

monthly at St John's, except in August,

at Epping Upland in March, June, September & November

at Coopersale in January, May, July and October
