Baptism At Hope!
We love Baptism! It’s one of our favorite things to do at Hope. If you’ve grown up in the church, or if you’re just visiting Hope for the first time, you probably have some questions about Baptism. What does it mean? Why would I do it? We’d love to have that conversation with you in person, but here’s a few details to get you thinking about it.
What is Baptism? It’s one of the great traditions of the church done to welcome people into God’s family through water and the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus followers have been getting baptized for thousands of years now. And for us at Hope, it is a way to be connected to all the generations of Christians who have gone before, as well as our sisters and brothers all over the world today. In Baptism we are welcomed not only into God’s family, but into God’s community here in the world.
Who can get baptized? At Hope we believe that Baptism is a celebration open to all. So, we baptize infants, kids, teens, adults, everyone! All are welcome in God’s family and we believe Baptism is part of that welcoming.
How does Hope do Baptism? In general we do Baptism in two ways. During worship we baptize children by pouring water over their heads at the Baptismal font. For teens and adults we often pour pitchers of water over their heads while they’re in a kiddie pool :) Yep, really. Again - it’s a celebration and we want everyone to experience that.
Got more questions? Been baptized already and you’re wondering if you should be again? You’re wondering about an infant dedication instead of a Baptism? Those are great questions too! Let’s chat in person and explore this wonderful gift of Baptism for you!

Like What We’re About? Become a Partner!
Here at Hope we invite people to join us as partners, not members. Membership is often about what you “get”. Partnership is about what you get to do. We seek partners who are moving towards Jesus, wherever they may find themselves on that journey. If you find yourself pursuing Jesus - if you like asking hard questions, if you choose humility and grace in your relationships and your relationship with Jesus - you’re the perfect partner for Hope.
