How do I arrange for a Baptism?
 
St. Matthew Lutheran Church is happy to arrange for the Baptism of children and adults.  

Jesus Christ our Lord says in the last chapter of Matthew, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.  Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."  This makes Baptism a Sacrament or a Holy Act.
 
Baptisms normally occur during worship services.  An Application & Information Form for The Sacrament of Holy Baptismal at St. Matthew will be sent to those interested in receiving the Sacrament. Those requesting to have their children baptized attend a pre-baptismal meeting with the pastor who will be officiating at the Baptism. Teenagers and adults normally complete confirmation instruction prior to being baptized. Call 847.438.7709 to begin the process and receive the Application & Information Form.
