Join us this Sunday as we learn about the Sacrament of Holy Baptism and how it strengthens us as believers.

Scripture teaches us that in Holy Baptism, we are cleansed from our sins and belong to the one true God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Therefore, we trust God for life and salvation.
The New Testament records that Jesus was baptized by John (Matthew 3:13-17), and he commanded his disciples to teach and baptize in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). Baptism is grounded in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ; the grace which baptism makes available is that of the atonement of Christ which makes possible our reconciliation with God. Baptism involves dying to sin, newness of life, union with Christ, receiving the Holy Spirit, and incorporation into Christ’s church.
