We all have individuals or causes that we choose to identify with in this world. Identifying is to feel that you are similar to someone and can understand them or their situation. People today identify with all kinds of different people or causes based on their beliefs, practices, and what they promise. Who do you identify with in this life?
This weekend we are looking forward to celebrating with people who have chosen to identify with Jesus Christ, the Son of God who came to offer his life as the only acceptable sacrifice for our sins. He commanded those who choose to believe in him to make a public declaration of their faith by being water baptized, by full immersion, in his name. It also expresses their desire to identify not only with Jesus but also with his church and ultimately with all his promises.
These water baptism services are always so exciting as people share their unique journey of coming to faith in Jesus Christ. We invite you to come and hear their incredible stories and celebrating their decision to be followers of Jesus Christ. Be sure to invite someone else to join you for this thrilling experience!
Every Blessing,
Pastor Barry Risto
