Baptisms

We love baptisms! The baptism service symbolises the cleansing work of Jesus Christ in their lives. If a baby is being baptised, the parents promise before God to raise their child to know and follow Jesus Christ.

There is no fee for a baptism conducted during a service. It is a privilege and a pleasure for us to be able to offer this sacrament. If you wish, however, to make a donation, you may put it in the offering plate at the entrance to the church or give it to the priest who takes your baptism service or donate here.

Contact us for more information.


Weddings

For over 170 years couples have exchanged their wedding vows in our Parish’s churches in the presence of family, friends and God as they seek God’s blessing upon their lives together. 

It is our delight to be able to solemnise holy matrimony through a Christian service in accordance with the liturgy and practice of the Anglican Church of Australia. You do not have to be a member of the church for a marriage service to be held at our churches.

Contact us for more information.


Funerals

Jesus said, "I am the Resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will not perish but have eternal life"

A Christian funeral marks the ending of a human life, and places this in the context of God's loving presence with us as we grieve. A funeral is time of both celebration of the life of a loved one, and a time of mourning for the loss of someone we dearly love. New Farm Parish offers an Anglican funeral service in our church, if you wish to pursue this with our priest, Fr Olaf.
