God has done a work on their hearts so that they see the sinfulness of their sin, the holiness of God and the salvation in Jesus Christ. They desire to walk in obedience to Christ’s call to identify with him through baptism. Please join us this Sunday to witness their baptisms and rejoice.

“Baptism as a burial with Christ signifies, first, acceptance of the death and burial of Christ as being for us. Let us do that at this very moment with all our hearts. What other hope have we? When our divine Lord came down from the heights of glory and took upon himself our manhood, he became one with you and with me; and being found in fashion as a man, it pleased the Father to lay sin upon him, even your sins and mine. Do you not accept that truth, and agree that the Lord Jesus should be the bearer of your guilt, and stand for you in the sight of God? “Amen! Amen!” say all of you” (Spurgeon Sermon #1627 on Rom 6:4).

Some Reasons to Forsake the Bells and Whistles

People pack into large congregations, enjoying the many programs and people of a large church. It almost automatically feels like you are a part of something bigger than yourself because of the sheer size of it all. In addition, they have all the luxuries and comforts of modern day living. So why would you go to a small, budding church plant that has little or none of the things you have come to expect from a church? Whether you are a Christian, or non-Christian, there are good reasons to come.
