We had a wonderful and blessed time this past Saturday as we were able to celebrate the baptisms of four blessed saints in our flock. We celebrate baptisms because it is a physical symbol of an inward reality. When God brings people to faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus for the forgiveness of sins and justification in his presence, he unites us to the death and resurrection of Jesus by giving us His Spirit to transform us to the image of Jesus. This is called the “Baptism of the Spirit” in the Scriptures. Water baptism is a one-time symbol or sign of these realities for those who confess and demonstrate faith in Christ.

Below are the four videos from the baptisms.
