The life in sacraments starts with Baptism. As we learn more about our faith we continue with the sacrament of First Communion. When we deepen our commitment to the church and faith, we participate in the sacrament of Confirmation. Then, depending on the vocation of the individual, we celebrate the sacraments of  Matrimony or Religious Order. Through life, we face illness or meet physical death, it is here when the church administers the sacrament of the Anointment of the sick and the last rites.

Other activities within the church tradition are not sacraments such as Funerals and Quinceañeras. However, we list them on this page after the subtitles of Becoming a Catholic RCIA and Religious Education for easier navigation of our site.

Child Baptisms - 

    Children from 0 to 6 years old are considered candidates for an infant baptism. Children 7 and older need to complete their first communion preparation to be baptized, usually on Easter Vigil each year. Instruction classes are offered by appointment. The  baptism ceremony will be celebrated every Saturday, upon availability, at 9:00 AM. Sponsors should be practicing Catholics and married by the church with the Sacrament of Matrimony. Please call the Parish Office to arrange both the instruction class and date of baptism.
     Instruction classes in English are held the third Wednesday of the month and the English Baptisms are held the first Saturday of the month. 
     Please call  the Parish Office at (805) 536-0532 or e-mail: [email protected] to arrange both the instruction class and date of baptism or if you have any questions regarding other sacraments.
