At Baptism will I have to talk?

At the beginning of the service, one of our pastors will briefly explain the meaning of baptism. We will then walk to the shoreline and you’ll take a picture with the pastor. YOu will then be placed in line and escorted into the water when your turn comes up. The pastors in the water will say a prayer for you, then briefly lower you under the water. You will then wait on the shore for the other to complete their baptism. A few weeks after this great event, we will then provide you a free plaque with a picture of you commemorating this special day. You can pick this up at the welcome table at the Regal Theaters one to two Sundays following the day you are baptized. We encourage you to invite all your relatives and friend to attend your baptism.

Can my family be baptized together?

Yes! If each family member understands the meaning of baptism, and each one has personally placed his/her trust in Christ for salvation, we encourage families to be baptized at the same time. It is a wonderful expression of commitment. Young children who wish to be baptized are asked to meet with one of your pastors first for a pre-baptism conversation. If you have a young child 6 or younger baptized with you, please guide them to be baptized at a later age when they will understand what they are doing.

What should I wear when I am baptized?

Women should wear shorts and a top for modesty purpose. Men may wear a swimsuit and t-shirt. Please bring a change of clothes, a towel and a plastic bag for your wet clothing once you’re baptized.
 
What if I have special needs?

All of your pastors can perform a private baptism in special circumstances. Simply call the office to arrange this at 360-225-4484 (via email: info@woodlandgrace.com)
