In order to properly prepare your family for your child's baptism,
parents and godparents are required to take one pre-baptism class,
held on the first Thursday of the month, at the Parish Center. 
At least one godparent must be a practicing Catholic.   

If you wish to have your baby or young child baptized at St. Bede,
please contact Moira Arjani at moira@bede.org or 818-949-4323
