SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN’S BAPTISM
You can start by reading Matthew 28:18-20 together.
Baptism is not a way to get to heaven. Jesus is the way! Jesus followers are called “disciples”. And disciples want to obey Jesus.
At Journey, when you get baptized, you do it in front of everybody! It’s a pretty big deal.You get in a big tub of water and another disciple (usually the pastor) helps you go under the water and come back up. He says, “I baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.”
Being baptized helps us think about how Jesus Christ died and rose again. When you go under the water, you remember Jesus died and you are saying: my old self – the self that wanted to sin – is dead. When you come out of the water, you remember Jesus is alive! And you are saying: “I have a new life in Jesus”.
If you would like to be baptized, your parents can help you fill out the online form!
Parents: we will email “next step” information. Please be sure to check your inbox for emails from baptism@journeyweb.net
Some denominations choose to baptize infants. While we recognize the right of other churches to practice infant baptism, we understand Scripture to teach that only professing believers qualify for baptism. Baptism does not make you a believer, rather it shows that you already believe.
Journey Church does recognize that parents may want to dedicate their children to God (1 Samuel 1:28, Luke 2:22) and publicly commit themselves to raise their child in a God-honoring home. For scheduling a child dedication please fill out the form below.
