Baptismal Class To have your child baptized at St. John Neumann, the parent(s) and godparent(s) must attend a baptismal class. We offer our classes on the first Tuesday of the month. Class lasts approximately 1 hour. You must call the church office to register for the class. Classes are valid for two (2) years. The class presents a summary of the Sacrament of Baptism. Specific emphasis is given to its origin, symbols, purpose and meaning. Eligibility and responsibility of godparents is discussed with class participants. Information is presented through lecture, video, and biblical readings. Classes are available in English and Spanish. For more information please contact the Church Office at 210-654-1643. Lead by Juan Santillan
