BAPTISM SUNDAY
Sunday, November 2nd
🕗 8:00 AM & 11:00 AM Services
Baptism is a powerful step of faith—a public declaration that you belong to Jesus. It represents being made new in Christ, leaving the old behind, and walking in new life through Him.
This joyful moment is an outward expression of an inward transformation and a beautiful act of obedience to Christ’s command. 🌊
If you’ve recently committed your life to Christ—or haven’t been baptized since believing—we invite you to take this next step. Let’s celebrate together as a church family!
-

CHILD DEDICATIONS
Children are a gift from God, and dedicating them is a beautiful act of surrender and faith. In Scripture, parents brought their children before the Lord—Hannah with Samuel and Mary and Joseph with Jesus—committing to raise them to know and love Him.
During our Child Dedication Service, parents make that same commitment, and our church family joins in prayer and support. ✨
Our prophetic teams will also pray and record words for each child—a special keepsake for parents.
Sunday, November 16th
🕗 8:00 AM & 11:00 AM Services
📝 Sign-Up Deadline: Tuesday, November 11th, 2025
