Child is Baptized
- If your child was baptized in the Catholic Church, please submit a copy of your child's baptismal and birth certificates. If you do not have your child's baptismal certificate, please obtain a copy from the church of baptism as soon as possible. Please note that if your child was not baptized at St. Joseph Catholic Church-Honey Creek, both records are required.
- If your child was not baptized in the Catholic Church, please obtain a copy of his/her Baptismal Certificate from the church of Baptism. We will review the baptismal certificate and determine if your child should prepare to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Communion through the RCIA Program or the First Communion Preparation Program.
