GERMAN LUTHERAN MINISTRY LONDON-EAST

Belonging, feeling God's presence and receiving His blessing for life – the sacrament of baptism offers all this and much more!

 

If you would like to have your child baptised or are thinking about baptism yourself, please get in touch with the Parish Office as early as possible in order to discuss the conditions and details.

Baptisms usually take place during our church services. It is therefore necessary to arrange your desired date as early as possible. Of course, the baptismal conversation and the baptism in the service can also be held in English.

​

Godparents

Please remember that when children are baptised at least one godparent must be a Protestant. Up to four godparents can be named, but they must all belong to a Christian church. Godparents need a godparent's certificate from the parish office at the godparent's place of residence (free of charge).

​

Baptism talk

We would be happy to arrange an appointment with you to discuss your situation further and clarify what would be involved. If you wish this can be a home visit.

Please contact the Parish Office with your enquiry.
