Chase Oaks Church

One of the great privileges of baptism at Chase Oaks is the opportunity you have to invite a brother or sister in Christ to baptize you.  This can be a parent, a trusted friend, someone who has challenged you spiritually, or a pastor.  When you request to be baptized, you will be asked to select this person.  Here are a few thoughts to help you make this important decision:

• Who invested in your life spiritually as you came to faith in Christ?
• Who has most challenged you on your spiritual journey?

During the service, a pastor will introduce each baptism candidate to the congregation.  Following this introduction, we ask that those baptizing the candidates ask them the following questions publicly as a part of the service:

• “Do you believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God?”
• “Have you trusted in Him for the forgiveness of your sins?”
• “Based on your profession of faith, it is my privilege to baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
