Baptism for Children:
Baptizing your child requires thoughtful knowledge of the sacrament. Therefore, first-time parents are required to be prepared by a priest for the baptism of their first child. The couple will meet with the priest once for about an hour. Parents who have already met with the priest to prepare for baptism are not required to meet again for a second child. Parents must be registered members of St. Teresa prior to baptism, and at least one godparent for the child must be a confirmed, practicing Catholic. To set up a time to meet with a priest, contact St. Teresa Parish Office at 402-477-3979. After completion of the baptism preparation, parents can contact the parish office to schedule the Sacrament of Baptism for their child. Baptisms are normally performed after our Noon Mass on Sundays. Baptism for school-age children takes place through St. Teresa School or CCD.
Baptism for Adults
Adults seeking baptism or other sacraments must go through OCIA. For more information, visit the OCIA page.
