Baptism

Baptism does not make you a follower of Christ nor does it guarantee your eternal destiny. Baptism is like a wedding ring – it is the outward symbol of an inward commitment you have made in your heart.

Since the purpose of baptism is to publicly profess your personal commitment to Christ, it is best if a child is mature enough to place his/her faith in Christ and understand the true meaning of baptism. For parents with infants and young children, we provide a special class and worship service time when parents may dedicate their children to God. This dedication is s covenant by the parents to raise their child in the ways of the Lord until the child is old enough to make his/her own personal commitment. You may contact Pastor Paul Rhodes to talk about having your child dedicated.

Yes! If each family member has placed his/her faith in Christ for salvation and understands fully the meaning of baptism, we encourage you to be baptized as a family.

Absolutely! We will provide all the help you need in preparing your faith story.
