OF BAPTISM
Baptism is a public declaration of one’s commitment to Jesus and full initiation into the Body of Christ. Infants, children and adults are baptized in the presence of the congregation, friends and Godparents. Baptism confirms their
decision and promise to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. Baptized children are sponsored by their parents and Godparents who make a promise to raise them to walk in Christ.
