Hope KidCity Baptism

Baptism is a very special event at Hope Community Church . It’s special because that’s when we will baptize kids who have decided to follow Jesus. These celebrations will be scheduled various times during the year.

Have you decided to pray and ask Jesus to be your Forever Friend and Savior? Now, you may be ready for that next exciting step in following Him. The Bible tells us that baptism, is like “going public” and letting others know that you have prayed the prayer to Admit your sins and ask forgiveness, Believe that Jesus died on a cross and paid the penalty for your sins, and Choose the free gift of Eternal Life. It’s a way for people to tell everyone that Jesus is their Forever Friend and they want to follow Him.

If you’re ready to take this next step in your journey, please fill out the questionnaire below—you may need your parents’ help. Don’t worry, the questions are simple! Do not hesitate to contact me (or any staff member at Hope) at the number or email listed below if you have any questions.

We look forward to being part of this very special celebration!

In His Name,

Laura Lee

Birthdate:

Yes, I have asked Jesus to be my Forever Friend and Savior. I would like to be baptized.

I have questions about what baptism is like and would like to talk to someone.

Questions:

Do you admit that you have done things that are wrong and because of this sin, you can't go to heaven on your own?
yes
no

Do you believe that Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty for your sins?
yes
no

Have you chosen the free gift of eternal life that Jesus made available for you?
yes
no

Please tell us about when you decided to make Jesus your Forever Friend and Savior. When and why did you make this cool decision? You may want to talk to your mom and dad and have them help you put it in your own words.

Can you tell us what is different about your life now that you have Jesus as your Forever Friend? It could be differences at home, or at school, or with your friends. Just think about it and put it in your own words.

Who, besides the Holy Spirit, most influenced you to become a Christ follower?

You may also choose to have "water witnesses" with you up front. This person (or small group of people) will stand by your side as you are being baptized. As with the actual baptizer, the water witness should be someone who had an important impact on your journey. (In other words, who is the first person you would want to hug or high five after you come out of the water?)

I would like to invite to be my "water witness(es)."
