HOLY BAPTISM

20231105_104056.jpg

Baptism is the entry point for members of the church. While God loves every human being, we believe Baptism is a God-given means of drawing us into God’s family. We believe that through the waters of Baptism, we die and rise with Christ; our sins are washed away, and we are born again by water and the Spirit.

​

Baptism is not a magical rite; it is an act of community. Parents and Godparents make solemn vows to help the one being baptized “grow into the full stature of Christ.” The parish also vows to “do all in their power to support the newly baptized in their life in Christ.” Those being baptized and their families are expected to worship before and after the celebration regularly.

​

Baptisms are held during the 10:00 a.m. service approximately once a quarter. Please get in touch with the clergy to schedule a Baptism. The church office can provide you with the necessary form and tell you about upcoming Baptism dates.
