A FEW WORDS ABOUT BAPTISM:

For us, the question is “Can things change?” Baptism is a picture of the healing, liberation, and change that Jesus has unleashed in people.

We invite you to participate in baptism. It is an opportunity to publicly identify yourself with Jesus in his death and resurrection. This is a powerful and beautiful opportunity to declare…

.

that you have made Jesus the Lord of your life;

that the best possible way to live is the way of Jesus;

and that you are committed to following Christ-daily, dying to yourself and allowing the resurrected Christ to live in and through you.

.

Baptism is not a means of salvation; rather it is a beautiful picture of our union with Christ and our declaring that we join him as the church in the reconciliation of all things.

.We believe the scripture asks the urgent question… what prevents you from turning to Jesus and being baptized?

Join us in singing, eating, and celebrating.
