New Life Sunday

At Life Canton we are Driven by New Life.

New Life happens when anyone turns toward Jesus. When they make that turn and decide to truly follow Jesus, getting baptized signifies this moment and it’s powerful. Check it out and see for yourself!

Unsure of Baptism?

Here are some common phrases we hear:

  • “I don’t have my act together yet.” Baptism is about beginning the life that you want to live, NOT having a perfect life first.

  • “I’m not a member/partner.” That’s ok. The only requirement is becoming a follower of Jesus Christ. Baptism does not make you a member/partner either.

  • “It’s not urgent.” Don’t delay. The Bible shows us many occasions where someone heard the Good News of Jesus, believed it, and got baptized.

  • “I was baptized as a child/infant; do I need to get re-baptized?” No! If you understood your baptism, then there’s no need to get baptized again. If, however, you feel that you want to make it your own, then you can get baptized.

  • “I want to wait and do it with my family.” Baptism is unique experience that is about what God is doing in and through you as an individual, but also about how God is using your baptism to impact the whole community. We can talk through this with you to find out what’s best.
