We would love to welcome your child at a christening in the ancient Norman font where Steyning’s children have been baptized for over a thousand years. This is the first step of an amazing journey with God, parents, godparents, friends, family and the church. 

Parents don’t have to have been christened themselves, nor do you need to be a regular churchgoer. 

We can conduct Christenings for those who live in Steyning or have another significant connection with Steyning Parish Church.  Please email the vicar for more information (or you can ring ‭the Vicarage on 01903 879877).

We also arrange baptisms and confirmations for adults who wish to be part of our worshipping community.

There is NO FEE for these services.
