Baptism
Baptism is the sacrament of entrance to the community of faith. Presbyterians baptize adults on their profession of faith, as well as the children of church members.
Most Presbyterians are baptized as infants as a sign of God’s love and as a recognition of their welcome into our church family. Children will speak for themselves and confirm their baptisms in a confirmation program during their teen years.
Central’s session approves all baptisms, which are celebrated during Sunday worship. For infant baptisms, at least one parent should be an active member of Central. Before each baptism, parents meet with the pastor to discuss the theology of baptism and what it means in the life of the family.
If you are interested in scheduling a baptism, please contact the Church Administrator.
