At Central, we believe that baptism is an important step in the life of a believer. Baptism is an outward expression of an inward change, publicly declaring what Jesus has already done in your life. Baptism by immersion is a beautiful way of identifying with Jesus, symbolizing death, burial and resurrection. It’s a way of declaring to the world your love for and allegiance to Christ.
Baptism Celebration
Our Southwest Campus will hold a baptism celebration service on Sunday, August 25th. We encourage all of our Central family to celebrate with us!
If you’re interested in getting baptized, you first need to attend a baptism class. So check out the class schedules under whichever tab (adult, youth, children) fits you and sign up!
