"A
person is incorporated into the universal
church, the body of Christ, through the sacrament of baptism.
Baptism with water and the holy spirit is the mark of acceptance
of individuals into the care of Christ's Church, the sign
and seal of their participation in God's forgiveness, and
the beginning of their new growth into full Christian faith
and life.
In
the United Church of Christ, people unite with a local church
by baptism and confirmation or by profession of faith and
baptism. They also unite by reaffirmation or re-profession
of faith or letter of transfer from other Christian churches."
(From the
Book of Worship, United Church of Christ)
If
you have never been baptized, you can make arrangements with
our office for your baptism prior to becoming a member.
