Why Should I Get Baptized?
Yesterday was a powerful day in this Bible Plan. Some of you might have even decided for the first time in your life that you want Jesus to be the One who’s leading you. If you did, that’s awesome! Now, it’s time for prayer, and today’s video, questions, and Bible reading.
Pray Together
Thank You, God, for saving us and bringing us into Your family. Please teach us what baptism is and how it shows others that we belong to You. In Jesus’ name, amen.

About this Plan
Preteens, you can have great conversations with your family about following Jesus and getting baptized! This plan has videos and questions to help start an open conversation with your family. If you want additional support, invite your youth pastor or another church leader to do this plan with you, too. This plan is modeled to help you and your family process information, ideas, doubts, and beliefs surrounding Jesus.
