Baptism

During the final invitation hymn near the end of our worship service, you are invited to come to the front of the sanctuary to speak with the pastor about your interest in becoming baptized.

Have a conversation to see if you are ready to be baptize and to pick a date.

We will all celebrate with you as you take this next step of following Jesus.

Baptism is a way to go public with your faith to show others that you have started a personal relationship with Jesus. It is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer’s faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Saviour, the believer’s death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus.

Some churches choose to christen or baptize infants. While we recognize the right of other churches to practice infant baptism, we understand Scripture to teach that only people who have made the decision to follow Jesus should be baptized. Baptism does not make you a Christian. It shows that you already are one.
