CELEBRATED AS A CHILD OF GOD

Through baptism a person is welcomed and celebrated as a child of God.  They receive His gift of grace and all His promises by the power of the Holy Spirit that works faith in their heart. 

What do we believe about baptism?

We believe that baptism fully connects you to the promises of God!  Baptism connects you to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.  Along with Jesus, we become heirs of the kingdom of God!  We're in the family!

God's Word on baptism

"When the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by His grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life." -Titus 3:4-7

You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. Galatians 3:26


CHILD BAPTISM

Baptisms can be done in two ways: during our worship services or with a small group of family and friends in the church sanctuary. Worship services are held weekly on Sundays at 8:15 or 10:30AM and Wednesdays at 6PM. Prior to the baptism our Director of Family Life Ministry, Mary Bloebaum, has a short Zoom call with the parents to discuss this important milestone in your child's life. Please complete the "Schedule a Baptism" form by clicking on the button below or contact the church office (309-828-6265 or info@trinluth.org) if you are interested in scheduling a baptism.

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”  -Matthew 28:19-20 (The Great Commission)
