Baptism

We celebrate the sacrament of Holy Baptism at various times throughout the year during one of our worship services. We baptize infants, children, youth, and adults, either by pouring or sprinkling water on a person, or immersing her or him fully in water.

Baptism is a sacrament of new life and initiation, specifically as a disciple of Jesus Christ in the church. It is a sign-act of such things as dying and rising with Christ, being washed clean of sins, and receiving the Holy Spirit.

We believe baptism has to do with God’s promise to us and not our promise to God. It is done for us entirely by God and does not depend on our actions.
