"Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life." Romans 6:4
WHAT IS BAPTISM?
Baptism is a great celebration event where those who have become followers of Jesus "go public" with their decision. We believe the Bible teaches that baptism is for any believer old enough to make a personal decision to follow Christ, and is done through full immersion in water as a symbol of identification with His death, burial, and resurrection. When we are baptized, we are aligning our life with Jesus as our Savior and Lord and recognizing our inclusion in God's family - the church.
Have you trusted in Jesus, but have not yet obeyed His teaching to be baptized? One of the last words from Jesus was for each believer to be baptized as an outward expression of their faith. See below for details of upcoming opportunities to be baptized at Calvary.
