Infant Baptism

Baptism is a special event in the life of a family and child. It represents God's unconditional and covenant love. Baptism usually occurs during infancy, though a person may be baptized at any age. Parents bring their baby to church, where they publically declare their desire that s/he be baptized. When an infant or child is baptized the church commits itself to nuture the child in faith. 

Baptism is conducted during the Sunday morning worship service, usually one Sunday a month. Baptisms may be scheduled by emailing Carole White or by calling 212.247.0490. Click here for more information on baptisms at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church.
