What is Baptism?
For two thousand years the Church has baptized people, infants, children, adults – in every language, in every place, immersing them in massive pools, or sprinkling their heads. With joyful simplicity, we do as Jesus told us to do.
The Next Step
Are you a parent who would like to schedule a baptism for your child? Would you like to be baptized as an outward sign of an inward change? The first step is to speak to one of our pastors during the week. When you talk with a pastor, you may schedule a date to be baptized or have your child baptized.
We baptize individuals in Sunday morning worship so the Church family can embrace and promise to support you, and so they can be reminded of the grace of God in their own baptisms. Most Sundays are available for baptisms. It is always our privilege to participate in this beautiful, powerful sacrament with you!
