 St Mary’s Timaru offers a welcoming place for baptism services, where families can come together to mark this important moment in Christian faith.

What is Baptisim?


Baptism is a Christian sacrament that symbolises new life in Christ and entry into the Church community. It is a time of commitment, celebration, and blessing, where we gather with family, friends, and the wider church to give thanks for God’s love and grace.

For parents and caregivers, baptism is also a promise to raise your child within a faith-filled environment, supported by the church community.
