Baptism

Baptism is our initiation into the church and our identification as children of God. God initiates this relationship and chooses us as daughters and sons, beginning our life-long journey of faith. God’s choice happens regardless of our age or our response. Because God chooses us once and for all, this is an act that should not be repeated. Those that are baptized as children must make the choice to confirm their belief in Christ to continue as members of the church. If you were baptized as a child, there is no need to be baptized again. If your child was baptized as a baby, he/she can later make the choice to profess his/her own faith in Christ in our Confirmation program for 6th graders. Baptism for children and adults is offered several times per year. There is a mandatory training for families prior to each date.

For families, children, and/or youth who are interested in being baptized, please contact Rev. Aaron Laird  to schedule an appointment to discuss those plans.
