Baptism Sunday
Interested in being baptized? We want to help!
What is baptism?
The act of being baptized under water is a picture of Jesus’s burial after taking the deadly punishment of our disobedience to God for us. The act of being lifted from the water is a picture of Jesus rising from the dead. Romans 6:4 puts it this way: “By our baptism then, we were buried with Him and shared His death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead […], we also may live a new life!”
Who should be baptized?
In Matthew 28:19-20, Jesus commanded his disciples to baptize other disciples in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. So according to scripture, if you have made a decision for yourself to follow Jesus, your next step is baptism!
Why baptism?
Baptism is like a wedding ring. Wearing a wedding ring does not make you married, but it is a public statement to the world that lets people know about your marriage status. In the same way, baptism is an outward expression of an inward change. A way of letting everyone know you have made a decision to follow Jesus.

Alpha
Everyone has questions. These nights are meant to be a space for community and conversation.
Alpha is a place to invite your friends, family, and co-workers to explore the questions of life, faith, and meaning, and to share your perspective in a relaxed environment. All perspectives are welcome. No questions are off limits.
Meet new people, share a meal, hear a talk about a life topic, then break into groups to share your perspective.
