Kathryn, Laurie, John, and Javin (in our care group)

Sean has been a christian since his freshman year of college, but has never been baptized.  This was really special for him and for our family.  He is saying that he believes in Jesus Christ and that Jesus died on the cross so he could be saved.  Sean is born again, once he comes out of the water.  Kathryn, a woman that goes to our care group also got baptized, it was one amazing night for Jesus!


Baptism  is significant in that it represents the forgiveness and cleansing from sin that comes through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Purpose of Baptism:

Water Baptism identifies the believer with the Godhead – Father, Son & Holy Spirit.

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19 (NIV)

Water Baptism identifies the believer with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection.
 "For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. And with him you were raised to a new life because you trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.” Colossians 2:11-12 (NLT)

“We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” Romans 6:4 (NIV)
