Baptism

Baptism is held in common by all the mainstream Christian denominations and so Baptism in the Scottish Episcopal Church is Baptism into the wider Christian community, just as Baptism in  another tradition is Baptism into the Scottish Episcopal Church.

As a Christian Church we welcome all who seek Baptism either for themselves or for their child(ren).  Infant or adult Baptisms (also sometimes referred to as Christenings) are generally arranged to take place as part of a Sunday Eucharist in one of our congregations.  The reason for this is to emphasise that the newly baptised are being welcomed into the Church.  If you would like baptism either for yourself or for your child, please contact us via the details in our Contact Details page.

If you are already Baptised in another tradition and are now worshipping with us, we are happy to discuss ways in which that transition can be marked publicly in an appropriate way.
