Baptism

Water baptism is one of the practices Jesus specifically gave to his followers. Since day one of the Church, this is how human beings step into the kingdom of God. Baptism involves verbal confession of trust in Jesus as well as whole-body testimony before Jesus' community. As you go under the water, you declare your old life has been buried with Christ. As you come up out of the water, you declare Jesus gives you new life through God's own Spirit. In this way, followers of Jesus confess he is the one true God-man who came to save us from the corruption, abuse, brokenness, and sin that has ruined our world. And one day, he will resurrect our bodies into life forever with him in the New Heavens and New Earth.

Baby Dedication
We believe that children are a vital and functioning part of the body of Christ. Because of this, we hold Baby Dedications during the fourth Sunday gatherings of each month. As a church family, we pray alongside parents committing to raise their children in the way of Jesus. If you would like us to pray for your family in this way, please let us know by filling out the Contact form, and someone will reach out to you soon.
Thoughts on Re-baptism
Many people experience the joy of baptism and later feel the desire to recommit their lives to Jesus through a second baptism. At Park Hill, we believe Jesus never lies or breaks His promises; therefore, we do not re-baptize Christians. Baptism marks the beginning of our life in Christ. Those who have already been baptized and wish to recommit their lives are encouraged to focus on growing deeper in their relationship with Jesus as His disciple. If you have questions about re-baptism, we encourage you to get in touch with our pastoral team by filling out our Contact form.
