Baptism

When our building was being built, we made the choice not to put in a baptistry.   We are a church that practices a believers baptism, so to solve the problem we started to baptize the “old fashioned” way: outside in a body of water.   More specifically at Morse Lake.  With the baptism comes a special celebration for those being baptized where we have a small service where those being baptized share their story and God’s story.  We also share some special readings, and the singing of praises.  We have an old-fashioned carry-in dinner and a burger bash at the South Harbour Clubhouse.  We enjoy each others’ company while the kids swim in the lake.
