New Life Begins Here

Jesus calls every person to do three things: repent, believe, and be baptized. At New Life, we set aside the first Sunday of every month for water baptism. We invite new believers to join a First Steps class and find a mentor to prepare for baptism.

Why Should I Be Baptized?

The answer is simple; because Jesus commanded us to! To understand more about baptism, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with Romans 6:1-4.

What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 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.

I Was Baptized as a Baby. Should I be Baptized Again?

The answer is simple; because Jesus commanded us to! To understand more about baptism, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with Romans 6:1-4.

What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?

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.

How Should I Prepare for Baptism? 

Baptism is a joyful occasion for you and those who will be celebrating with you. For some, it may be hard to share with family and friends, but know that God is with you in this. If you’ve accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior, and are ready to be baptized, talk to a mentor, group leader, or pastor about it, who can lead you in the steps to baptism and pray with you.
