Baby Baptism
BAPTISM OF BABIES conducted in English or Bahasa Malaysia has resumed in the Cathedral Parish. Parents with babies to be baptised are to register online at https://formfaca.de/sm/y2oT0Qf_P and upload the scanned copy of all the required documents stipulated below:
| Parents | Sponsor (Godparent) |
|
- Your child’s Birth certificate or - MyKid (if any) - Family Record Book |
- MyKad (or Birth certificate) - Baptismal certificate - Confirmation certificate - Family Record Book or Marriage certificate (issued by Catholic Church) |
Only Parents who have submitted complete set of the required documents will be accepted and the Parish Office will inform you when and where to attend the Rite of Baptism in due course. You will then be required to send in your original Family Record Book for updating before the actual rite.
According to Canon Law # 874, a Sponsor (God parent) must be a baptised, confirmed and practising Catholic. If married, his / her marriage must already be blessed in the Catholic Church. (This does not apply to those who were not Catholics [both husband & wife] at the time of their civil marriage).
Gender of Godparent should be same as baby's. Grandparent cannot be Godparent. Please choose a catholic saint's name for your baby (www.catholic.org/saints/).
