Baptism

Christ United baptizes individuals at any age. 

Sometimes baptism is administered to individuals who are ready to embrace God’s kingdom and follow Jesus on their own. At other times, parents bring their children for baptism in the hope and understanding they will nurture their children in the way of Jesus so one day they will trust in Christ and follow Him for themselves. We consider baptism a sacrament. A sacrament is a “sacred sign” through which God does something extraordinary using ordinary things like bread and wine – or water. In the Sacrament of Baptism, God uses water to tell us we are loved,  claimed by God, and given a place in God’s family.
