If your child/ren have expressed a desire to be baptized this year, here’s the latest info for you:
The baptism classes (taught by Pastor Matt) are now scheduled for Saturdays, June 30 and August 6, from 9:30-11. Parents are strongly encouraged to attend these classes with their children. Childcare is provided by contacting Hala.
The baptism service will be on August 14. This service will be followed by an outdoor water fun day on our playground, as is our custom.
Remember that we’ve designed the baptism classes to help parents decide whether or not their children are ready for baptism. If you are unsure about whether or not this is the right year, class number one will help you decide.
Adults who would like to be baptized should simply contact Pastor Matt. He will be happy to talk with you!
Let Hala know if you have any kid-related questions!
The Baptism Service is on Sunday Morning, August 14th. Hala says, “following is an outdoor water fun day on our playground, as is our custom.” Plan to bring a lunch and hang out.
Jesus was baptized and that’s a very strong example of what He asked us to do. Jesus’ last command was to go into all the world to make disciples, baptizing them.
This important step of obedience is described by the Apostle Paul in Romans 6, “We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection.
