Join us at Keith & Jennifer Martinson’s home as we celebrate an outdoor baptism at lake Burgen and hear testimonies from those who have decided to commit their lives to Christ. An open invitation to be baptized will be extended at the Martinson’s if you would like to be baptized. Please bring your own picnic lunch and lawn chair.
We at ACC believe baptism to be an act of obedience to the command of Jesus, fulfilled by individuals who have submitted themselves to His sovereignty. It symbolizes the spiritual cleansing through divine forgiveness and the newness of life believers experience by virtue of their identification with Christ in his death and Resurrection. Baptism provides an opportunity for believers to make a formal profession of their faith. Baptism is not a condition for salvation,but a response to the redemption and love of Jesus.
