Baptism is an acknowledgement of a personal Christian faith, acknowledging Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour, and involves a desire to repent - express sorrow - for those things which we have done which offend God.

 

In infant baptism, parents and Godparents make particular promises on behalf of their children so that they may learn about Jesus and come to put their faith in Him as they mature.

​

​

Adult Baptism 

 

The same is true for adult Baptism, where the promises and declaration of belief in God are made by the adult themselves and their sponsors.  We offer adult baptism, and also baptism by immersion.

 

​

Thanksgiving

​

A service designed for those who wish to thank God for the birth of their child. The promises you make are more general than in the baptism service and are about your desire to have God watch over and bless your child. It takes place in one of our normal Sunday Services or can be held at another time. If you want to you can move to a baptism at a later date
