Baptism
Baptism is the means by which we become a Christian. It is the start of a journey that will eventually lead to eternal life.
In Wokingham St Sebastian’s Parish, we are happy to baptise babies, infants and adults who live locally, have a strong connection, or who regularly worship with us.
Baptisms generally may take place during our Sunday Worship or outside the time slot at either 12.30pm or 1.30pm. If there are circumstances that require the baptism during our Church Services, please contact Reverend Rickey Simpson-Gray or Kirsty Milam (Office Manager) via the Parish Office details below:

A Bible reading from the 60th chapter of Isaiah during this season of Epiphany: “Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all to see. For the glory of the Lord rises to shine on you. Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of the earth, but the glory of the Lord rises and appears over you. All nations will come to your light; mighty kings will come to see your radiance." Amen
A Prayer for today Heavenly Father, you have called us in the Body of your Son Jesus Christ to continue his work of reconciliation and reveal you to the world. Forgive us the sins which tear us apart; give us the courage to overcome our fears and to seek that unity which is your gift and your will; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen
