Holy  Baptism

Holy baptism is one of two holy sacraments in the Lutheran Church.

Picture
In holy baptism, the triune God delivers us from the forces of evil, puts our sinful self to death, gives us new birth, adopts us as children, and makes us members of the body of Christ, the church.

The Trinity community at worship celebrates God's gift of baptism in a number of ways. The sacrament itself normally takes place during one of Trinity's three worship services and it it a sign that through baptism, we are made one with Christ and with the whole people of God. On behalf of the whole church at Trinity, we promise support to new sisters and brothers, confess the faith with them, and welcome them into the body of Christ.  Water connected to the Word--God's saving promise in Jesus Christ--is at the center of the baptismal celebration.

Although a person is baptized only once, the gift of baptism continues throughout a Christian's life. Instruction in the faith for a life of discipleship is part of the preparation of those who are to be baptized or their parents and sponsors. The ongoing nurture of that faith is part of Trinity's ministries of formation, education, service, and evangelical witness.
