WELCOMING CHILDREN

​

Baptist churches do not baptise infants because they believe that the decision to be a disciple of Jesus is one that can only properly be made at a later stage of spiritual development. However we do welcome children into the community by means of a special service known as ‘Infant Presentation’ or ‘the blessing of children and the dedication of parents’. This service involves both thanksgiving and blessing and usually takes place in a regular service of worship and celebrates the fact that children belong within and and are embraced by the Christian community. Please speak with our Pastor if you would like to know more.
