You should continue to discuss this. A child has the right to be baptized if the parents are willing to do the best they can to bring up the child as Catholic, even if only one does. But if you are disagreeing in this perhaps you can have someone faciliate the discussion. It is not the intent of the church to create family conflicts over what should be a happy occasion.
If you were marired in the Catholic Church the catholic oarty took an oath to do the best he or she can to bring up the children as Catholic.
I'm afraid not. The Catholic church will consider the baby as a 'Christian' and not a 'Roman Catholic' since they were baptized. It's a valid sacrament in the eyes of the Catholic Church. However you need to talk to the parish priest in the Catholic Church and they'll guide you with more information as to make your baby a Roman Catholic.
No you are not a born catholic but you can be born into a family that is catholic. To become catholic you must be baptized
Roman Catholic AnswerYou need the pastor of your home parish to approve you to have your baby baptized. He can make arrangements if you wish to have your baby baptized in another church.
Yes but she had to convert to the Church of England to marry William.
Roman Catholic AnswerTo have your baby baptized, you need your pastor's approval. If you would like to have your baby baptized somewhere else, check with your pastor and he can arrange with the priest in the area you want to have the baptism.
The Catholic Church only recognizes one baptism, even most Protestant baptisms. If you have converted from Catholicism, however, any church that practices baptism will likely be able to conduct a baptism. You may be required to attend baptismal class prior to being baptized.
A baby only needs baptized once. You should pick which church you "mostly" like and have the baptism there. You might arrange an acknowledgement service at the other church.
they say it does count. but my pastor says you have to be old enough to know why you are being baptized.
According to Catholocism, baptism is to be administered to an eight-day old infant. According to other denominations that practice infant baptism, people may be baptized at any time during their life.
if a baby has not been baptized and is dieing or dead, they will perform an emergency baptism and last rites.
No, the recognition of a marriage in the church is not a requirement for baptizing a baby in the Catholic Church. However, the parents are typically expected to be committed members of the Catholic faith and be willing to raise their child in accordance with Catholic teachings. The specific requirements may vary depending on the particular diocese or parish.
In an emergency situation, ANYONE, even someone who is not baptized, CAN baptize anyone if they intend to do what the Church does when she baptizes. That being said, a Catholic deacon MAY baptize a baby legitimately for the Church. In the second case the deacon is acting as an ordained minister and fulfilling his function as such.
