Baptism
We practice believer’s baptism
by immersion. We dedicate babies, and then baptize children
and adults who are taking a step of obedience after committing
their lives to Christ. While baptism is not required for
salvation, we do consider baptism a requirement for membership.
We have several baptisms at weekend services each year, and
also schedule an annual baptism at the beach.

Ways to Give
Part of growing in Christ includes giving as He has directed
us in his word. We often feel uncomfortable talking about money
and church together. Jesus spent a great deal of time talking
about money, and so we need to become more comfortable talking
about money in relation to our Christian faith. We believe
that God has called us to tithe on the money we make through
the talents and gifts He God has given us. A tithe is 10% of
what we make. This is difficult to do, but those who have made
the commitment to do it have great stories about how God has
worked in their lives as a result. There are many ways you
can do that giving. Click on the Ways to Give page for more details.
