Pastoral Services
Baptism
Holy Baptism is the sacrament by which God adopts us as his children and makes us members of Christ’s body. At Emmanuel, we baptize children and adults by the sprinkling of water on the head. This initiation rite is done on particular Sunday mornings throughout the year.
Weddings
Marriage is the sacramental rite through which two individuals become one. At Emmanuel we take weddings and marriage seriously. Reserved for members of the parish, planning and premarital counseling begins at least 6 months prior to the service.
Funerals
Death is often a complex and difficult endeavor for family and close friends. Let the clergy and staff of Emmanuel support you in your time of need to celebrate the life of your loved one and to help you lay them to rest. Contact the office for immediate need at 910-692-3171.
