Pre-Baptismal Class and meeting with Fr. Matt

The Los Angeles Archdiocese requires parents and godparents to have completed a Pre-Baptismal Class in the last 3 years. We ask that parents and godparents complete the LA Archdiocese Online Pre-Baptismal Course and send a copy of the certificates to Fr. Matt prior to the baptism.

In addition to the online course, we ask that couples set up a meeting with Fr. Matt to go through additional baptismal information and to answer any questions that couples may have (godparents, if nearby, are welcome to join as well!).

Godparent(s)

The Church follows Canon Law for requirements regarding godparents. These are a way to ensure that a child baptized into the Catholic Church has a godparent who can relate to their faith and help to pass it on.

Canon Law sections 872-874 state that godparents for baptism are:

  • at least 16 years old
  • fully initiated into Catholic Church (have received sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist)
  • not the child's mother or father
  • in good standing with the Catholic Church; if married, then married in the Catholic Church.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Proof of Sacraments may be requested. One godparent is acceptable; if two godparents are chosen, then one should be male and one female. No more than two godparents (one male and one female) can be listed in the Church Register. As long as there is one qualified Catholic godparent, the other can be a baptized non-Catholic, who will be known as a "Christian Witness."
