BAPTISM
WHENEVER IT HAPPENS, AS A BABY, CHILD OR ADULT, BAPTISM IS AT THE HEART OF AN AMAZING JOURNEY OF FAITH AS A FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST. YOU ARE NEVER TOO OLD TO TAKE THIS STEP
CHILD BAPTISM
A child's baptism is a public declaration from the child's parents/carers to nurture them on their journey of faith. It is a formal welcome into the family and life of the Christian church. The Church will declare together that they will support you and your child in whatever way they can, as you commit to nurturing them in a life of faith, in Jesus.
ADULT BAPTISM
Adult baptism is a personal act of obedience for a believer, who chooses to make a public declaration of their faith in Jesus and commits to following him as part of the Church, and so family of God.
​
You may have been baptized at a christening when you were a child or in a different Christian tradition, and there are always special ways to renew the promises that were made then in a fresh way as you discover more about what it means to live them out in your life.
​
Baptisms are held in our Sunday morning celebrations. We believe that baptism is a significant occasion, worth celebrating, so we like to plan them in carefully. Please get in touch to speak to someone about arranging and preparing for a baptism.
