Baptism

The ordinance of baptism is a symbol of genuine conversion for those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. 

 

Jesus was baptized to express His Sonship and launch his Messianic mission. Our baptism is an act of identification with Him, the One who saved us by His mercy and grace. Put another way, baptism is an outward expression of our inward experience of faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Baptism, itself, does not provide salvation.  Faith in Jesus Christ alone is the means for salvation.  However, baptism is a joyous celebration of obedience to the Lord's command and a tangible expression of our Lord's resurrection and the believer's new life in Christ.

 

We believe that full immersion of the new believer portrays this accurately and look forward to celebrating baptisms on the 2nd Sunday of each month.
