Baptism

Baptism candidates will be baptized
on the first Sunday of each month during our 10:45am service.

Baptism is the outward symbol that an individual has accepted Christ, repented of their sins, and made a promise to God to follow His will. Candidates will experience water immersion symbolizing the change that a person has made in their life. Going under the water shows that the person has died to their former way of life and is starting a new life as a Christian.

Being baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and the holy spirit means recognizing that the Father is the creator, the Almighty God and has ultimate authority; the Son is Jesus Christ who gave His life for us, and the holy spirit is the way that God communicates with us.

Each candidate will need to bring the following:

  1. A pair of shorts, such as spandex shorts, that can be worn underneath a baptism gown
  2. A simple tee shirt or tank shirt that can be worn underneath a baptism gown
  3. An additional set of undergarments
  4. One pair of white socks
  5. Hair clips or hair bands if needed (for those with longer hair or hairstyles such as braids or locs).
