Baptism Celebration
One of our favorite days of the year is coming up—our Baptism Celebration on Sunday, July 13th! This is a powerful day where we come together as a church family to celebrate life transformation, worship together, hear stories of God at work, and cheer on those going public with their faith through baptism. This day is full of fun, joy, and encouragement!
And here’s the thing—this day doesn’t happen without all of us. It takes a whole team of people coming together to help create a welcoming, smooth, and joy-filled experience.
There are all kinds of opportunities to serve—from table set-up, bounce house monitors, food service, and more. However God has gifted you, there’s a place for you to jump in.

Serving Opportunities
Have you ever wondered what it truly means to serve? It’s more than just doing a good deed—it’s a transformative journey that draws us closer to God and shapes us in powerful ways.
When we say yes to serving, God equips us, fills us, and walks with us through it all. It’s not just about helping—it’s about stepping into His purpose and experiencing His heart more deeply.
If you’ve been sensing that nudge to serve, now’s the time to take a step. Stop by the Info Center to learn more about serving or visiting our website to see what opportunities are available.
