Fellowship Bible Church believes that baptism is an outward sign of a life-long commitment to follow Jesus.  Jesus modeled this practice and encouraged believers to do the same.  Any child who wishes to be baptized needs to contact either
Aaron Parks (Hwy 34 Director), Matt Archer (Fifty6 Director), Becky Lentz (K-2 Director), Beth Kenyon (Elementary Team Leader) or a Community Pastor to set up a time where they can meet together.  Before this meeting, the family will be asked to read the 2nd and 3rd chapters from the book Should I Be Baptized to determine, if indeed, the child fully understand the meaning and symbolism represented in the act of baptism.  Following this meeting, the staff member will determine if she/he believes the child is ready to be baptized.  

 

The Elementary staff believes that children can become followers of Christ and respond to Him in baptism; however, some children may have the desire to be baptized and yet not fully understands its significance. If the staff does not believe that the child fully understands the meaning of this commitment of baptism, they will recommend that the family wait until the child has a better understanding of the significance of this ordinance.
