Looking for Church for Private Baptism Near Morristown/Basking Ridge

Hi, We would like to have our son baptized and every church I call does baptisms in front of the congregation. We are looking for something private and small. Neither my husband nor I are very religious but having him baptized is important to my family and his.
Anyone have any suggestions near Morristown or Basking Ridge? Thanks!

    If you're Catholic, Christ the King in New Vernon did an absolutely wonderful private baptism for my girls! Hope that helps!

    Hi! I am Catholic but my husband is not. Did you have to join the congregation?

    Thanks so much!

    I don't understand why you are having your child baptized to appease your families if you have no intention of raising them to be religious. Many churches require that you are part of the parish in order to have your child baptized there.
