Baptisms

Holy Baptism is the sacrament by which one becomes a Christian, a member of the Body Christ, a partner with Christ in the world of saving the world, and an inheritor of the Kingdom of God.

It's an event of importance and celebration both for the individual Christian and for the whole church. Parents and godparents who present children for baptism discover that their participation has a profound effect on their own spiritual lives. Adults who come to be baptized experience this as a crucial step in their journey of faith.  At least one parent or God Parent of a child being baptized is required to be Baptized themselves. Adults who wish to be baptized must do so with the intention of becoming a member of Grace Church.  Baptisms are celebrated on Sunday mornings, during the 10:00AM service, several times throughout the church year.  Parents and Godparents gather for an evening of baptismal preparation before the day of the Baptism.  Adults desiring to be baptized undergo a course of study in the weeks leading up to their baptism.
