Why You Want To Be Water Baptized
WATER BAPTISM IS SPIRITUALLY SIGNIFICANT.
We celebrate your important next step in drawing closer to God! In water baptism you are identifying with Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. Going under the water signifies that your former life is now dead and buried. Rising out of the water signifies resurrection to a new, spiritual life empowered by the Holy Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. You now live your new life from the position of victory over sin and death.
JESUS IS OUR EXAMPLE.
While He had no sin from which He needed to be cleansed, Jesus identified with the needs of humanity and set the example for all who would follow Him. This is what the Christian journey is all about: being like Jesus! So follow Jesus’ example and be water baptized.
AGE FOR BAPTISM.
Our recommendation is a child wait until they are in 2nd grade to be water baptized to ensure they fully understand the significance of this next step.
