2026 BAPTISM WORKSHOPS
2026-04-27 13:00 - 14:00 UTC | MN
The one-hour interactive workshop via Zoom covers what baptism is, what it means for you and/or your child, tips for raising a family of faith, and what the day of baptism will look like.

The class will cover: What baptism means in the Lutheran tradition, how to prepare for your child’s baptism, what to expect on the day of their baptism, godparents and how to select them, nurturing faith at home beyond your child’s baptism day, and more! You’ll have the opportunity to connect with other St. Andrew’s families, and have any of your remaining questions about baptism answered.

Please gather these items and have them nearby at the Zoom meeting: A “faith object” (for show-and-tell)— something in your home that reminds you of your faith or helps you practice your faith, a small bowl of water (for a blessing), and a Bible (you can Google for our readings if you don’t have a Bible available).

Your children are more than welcome to join us during the meeting, but they are not required to be present. We understand that some of you will need to move on-and-off-screen to tend to the needs of your little ones during our time together. We are so grateful for this opportunity to gather in whatever way is best for your family!

Please note, a Zoom link will be emailed to you 2-3 days before the workshop.
