Worship Services For Congregational Use
Introductory Comments
This service is designed to assist us as a congregation to enlarge and enhance the place Baptism holds in the faith and life of each of us as members of the body of Christ. The sacrament of Holy Baptism is not a simple water act, but water combined with God's command and Word make it a gift from the God of life as we are washed in the regeneration of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, we gather to affirm our faith in Christ and the waters into which we were buried and then raised to new life through belief in Jesus our Lord and Savior.
