Baptism Weekend

Baptism is an essential step of obedience that shows others we have personally accepted Jesus as our Leader and Forgiver of our lives. Baptism is simply an outward expression of an inward change.
We would love to celebrate that public profession of faith with you at our baptism celebration.
If you're interested in taking this next step of faith, we will celebrate October 21st and 22nd during our weekend experience times.
To sign up, click the link below, and a person from the team will reach out.
Everyone has a next step; if this is yours, let's celebrate that together.
