Christenings
& Thanksgivings
At a christening, we celebrate the birth of your child; knowing that they are special and loved by God. During the service, your child will be baptised; in other words, they will have water sprinkled on them as a sign of new life and will be blessed by name.
Everyone who lives in Sprowston or has a family connection to Sprowston can have their children christened in either church.
Christenings currently take place at 12.15 on a Sunday following the morning service at St Mary and St Margaret’s or 11.15am at St Cuthbert’s.
In the service, you promise that you will do what you can to bring up your child as part of God’s family, and we promise that we will make them welcome as part of our church community. If you’d prefer a more general service of Thanksgiving & Blessing for your child, please let us know.
