Baptism unites you with Jesus Christ and makes you a member of God’s family, the church.
It’s God’s gift of grace, as well as his invitation for you to respond to that grace.
We believe baptism is a public confession—not a private one. It’s your statement of faith made in the presence of others.
We also believe that this sacrament in itself does not save you or even help you to have more faith. At the same time, if you’re unbaptized, it doesn’t necessarily mean you aren’t saved.
The effect of your baptism isn’t tied to the moment when it is administered. It signifies the beginning of life in Christ… not its completion.
If you’ve already been baptized as a child or in another denomination, there’s no need to be baptized again. We are part of one body of Christian believers, which means we recognize and accept all baptism with water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
