Holy Baptism
What is Baptism?
​
Through the water, God touches a human member of God's creation and says...
​
-
You are incorporated into Christ and into his body, the Church.
-
You are initiated, adopted into my covenant people.
-
You are called! Chosen! Saved! Born again!
-
You are forgiven--free to live without excuses.
-
You are marked with the cross of Christ forever.
-
You are given the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Who can be Baptized?
​
In the Lutheran tradition, a person can be baptized at any age. We don't require "believer baptism," but rather believe that baptism is the beginning of a relationship with God. the faith and forgiveness that come in that relationship are free gifts of God for people of all ages, whether infants, older children or adults.
