Baptism Congratulations
on your seeking Baptism for your child. This is a great moment,
and we at St. Gertrude Parish hope to assist you in preparing to
celebrate Baptism beautifully and meaningfully. It will be a
joyous occasion for your family and for our parish. We ask that families presenting their children for baptism be registered members of our parish. If you have not yet had a chance to register, you can do so by clicking on the Religious Formation Homepage. After registering, or if you already are registered, then download the pages of the Baptismal Information Packet (a PDF file), complete the forms, and return them to the Parish Office (St. Gertrude Church, 303 Franklin Ave., Vandergrift, PA 15690) by mail or dropping them off personally. Once the Baptismal Information Forms are received, you will be contacted with more information about the process for preparation and celebration of the sacrament. Baptismal Information Packet 1.
