One Lord, one faith, one baptism

Ephesians, chapter 4, verse 5

Christ was once born, once baptized, once suffered on the Cross for our salvation, and once resurrected.

By being baptized again, we mock on the Cross on which Christ was crucified.

Due to the growing interest of the faithful people, those who were baptized in other local churches, especially those baptized in the Serbian Orthodox Church, to obtain the baptismal certificate from the Montenegrin Orthodox Church, with the blessing of Metropolitan Michael, we inform the public and the faithful people that all baptisms are recognized in the Montenegrin Orthodox Church.

The confusing practice of re-baptism of already baptized people, which is carried out by the Serbian Orthodox Church, makes many wonder if they have to be baptized again in the Montenegrin Orthodox Church. The answer is no. If you want a baptismal certificate issued by the Montenegrin Orthodox Church, it is enough to enclose a copy of the baptismal certificate issued in another church.

How to get the baptismal certificate of the Montenegrin Orthodox Church

If you don’t have the original or a copy of the baptismal certificate, along with the request for the issuance of the baptismal certificate, you must send information about where you were baptized, which priest baptized you, when, etc.

An inquiry for the issuing of a baptismal certificate can be sent to the e-mail address , and in response, all the requested information is sent to you in order to obtain the baptismal certificate of the Montenegrin Orthodox Church.
