Taking Your Faith Public
Water baptism is a powerful and necessary step of every believer. When Christians are baptized, they are submerged under water to identify with the death and burial of Jesus and raised out of the water to identify with His resurrection. When we go into the baptism waters, it symbolizes death to sin and self, and as we come up out of the water, it symbolizes being raised up a new person in Christ. It is an acknowledgment to the world that you have decided to follow Jesus.
Jesus made His confession of faith public by being water baptized when He was on the earth, and we do this to follow His example and His command. Water baptism is a step of obedience and the covenant seal of our relationship with Christ.

If you were baptized as a baby, before you personally accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, or before you truly understood the meaning of baptism, we encourage you to be baptized again as a reflection of your own desire and commitment to Jesus.
We strongly encourage that children be at least five years old. Children must be old enough to believe and express their own decision to follow Jesus before being water baptized. This is a conversation for parents to have with their children before a decision is made. We invite you to speak with our Children’s Ministry about taking this next step.
