Thank you for thinking about baptism either for yourself or your child. We look forward to helping you prepare for baptism and accompanying you on your journey of faith.

For enquiries about baptism please contact the office in the first instance [email protected] NB (usually open Mondays and Thursdays)

After your initial contact you will be sent a letter and a form to complete. This form provides us with your details, provisional dates and godparents’ details. Godparents must be already baptised.

Once we have received your form we will arrange for you to come to a church service and afterwards, over a coffee, prepare you for the promises and commitments you will be making through baptism. Once we have completed this preparation we will be able to confirm a baptism date.

If you live in any of the parishes of the White Horse Team (Brokerswood, Dilton Marsh, Old Dilton, Westbury, Westbury Leigh) you will be invited to attend worship in any of our churches. Or come to Tot's Praise at Holy Trinity (Termtime Fridays at 10am) or LEGO Church at Holy Trinity (4th Sunday at 3pm). This is a chance for you to meet us and the worshipping community which you will be joining.

If you are a regular member of any or our worshipping communities, including Tot's Praise and LEGO Church, we can arrange for the baptism to take place during a regular service.

If you live outside the parishes of the White Horse Team we are still happy to help you seek baptism, but we ask that baptism preparation is undertaken in the parish where you live. We can only arrange baptism once we have heard from your local parish priest and the appropriate preparation has taken place.
