We believe that being baptized in water is a step of faith that is part of the expected progression that a follower of Jesus walks through in their journey of faith, as we see happening throughout the New Testament. As you go under the water, it symbolizes your death with Christ, and as you come back out of the water, it symbolizes your new life in Him. Baptism is an outward declaration of your faith in Jesus as your Savior. We believe that this baptism is meant for people who are of an age where they can make this decision for themselves. For infants, our church does something we call "baby dedications," and we'd love to fill you in on what that looks like if you're interested in having a baby dedicated.
