Baptism Preparation Workshop - March 2017
Posted on
On April 9, we will have a service to baptize those who have recently come to saving faith in Jesus Christ, as well as those who have been a Christian, but have not yet been baptized.
Baptism is a unique and important ritual of the church. People differ as to who should get wet, when, and how much water should be used, but since the birth of Christianity, new converts have always been baptized because baptism symbolizes salvation.
It may be that you’ve become a Christian through your time at Parkside Church Westside, but you haven’t really told anyone. If that’s the case, we thank God for what he’s doing in you, and want to help you follow through in baptism because God will use it to strengthen your soul.
If you have questions about being baptized, please let us know. Someone on our leadership team will be glad to follow-up with you and think about what might be best for you going forward. You can also watch or listen to Matt's sermon, "Be Baptized," over on our website.
Baptism Preparation Workshop: March 19 and 26
To help you prepare, we will have a two-class Baptism Preparation Workshop this March. After our Sunday services on March 19 and 26, we will head over to the church offices (15529 Madison Ave, Unit 1, Lakewood, 44107) to work through the biblical material related to baptism and cover the details for the baptism service. Please plan to attend both classes. We’ll provide lunch and need an RSVP from you.
Baptism Service and Meal
Our baptism service will be held on Sunday, April 9, at 4:30pm at Lakewood Baptist Church (14321 Detroit Ave, Lakewood, 44107) followed by a family meal at The Winking Lizard (14018 Detroit Ave, Lakewood, 44107). Buffet is $5 a person, and we'll take care of the rest. Children are welcome!
