Next Baptism date: March 10th

What's baptism all about? 

It's no secret that, here at 2Rivers, we are all about seeing people become passionate followers of Jesus. We believe Jesus offers us new life and it's simply and incredibly a free gift he offers to us by his death on a cross. That's the good news we get to experience and share with others! 

Now, baptism itself is a defining step in our journey, which let's us publicly declare that we are a follower of Jesus and have accepted his freely given offer of grace. This grace means he will no longer count our sins against us and he will give us a new freedom and life in relationship with the God of the universe. 

If you want to go deeper on understanding Baptism and salvation, Pastor Ron gave a great message outlining it. Click here to check it out! 

How do I know it's time to be baptized?

The decision to be baptized necessitates three things. For one, it involves faith. We need to place our faith in Jesus Christ as the Savior and the Lord of our lives. We believe that we are saved by his grace alone and not by anything we do, and we acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God. He is also the Lord of our lives and deserves our obedience as such. Baptism also involves repentance. This means that we are examining our lives and choosing to do a 180-degree turn from anything that isn’t honoring to God. Baptism also requires a confession of our faith; we will publicly acknowledge that we believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God. This is important because we are inviting support and accountability into our lives from the church as we make this decision. Then lastly, we baptize. This is a symbol of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection that we participate in and remember each time we celebrate baptism together.

I'd like to talk to someone about baptism

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 6:4-5
