If you wish to book a bapstim/christening in the Billingborough Group of parishes
please contact the Benefice Administrator Maria
Please note that as we are currently without a vicar, most baptisms take time to book as we are having to find a priest to travel in from outside the area.
Because of this
Baptisms need to be booked at least three months in advance and bookings will not proceed until the completed part 1 form is received.
Initially requested dates cannot be guaranteed, but an email will be sent once the date is confirmed.
Please find the baptism form which you need to complete here

- If you live within any of the parishes of the group i.e. Aslackby, Billingborough Dowbsy, Horbling, Pointon and Sempringham, you are able to have your child baptised in any of the churches. Please check achurchnnearyou.com to see which parish you live in.
- If you live without the Group it may still be possible, with the agreement of the vicar of the parish in which you live to hold the baptism in the church you wish.
- Most baptisms take place on a Sunday afternoons, although there is the opportunity to hold the baptism within the main Sunday Service which is held at 11am.
- Although Baptisms can take place around the year, please note that Sempringham is not usually open between Harvest and Easter as it becomes damp and cold.
- if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
