At Iglesia de Cristo Río de Vida, we believe that baptism is a significant milestone in the spiritual journey of every believer. It is a powerful and symbolic act that represents a profound transformation and a public declaration of faith. Baptism serves as a symbolic washing away of the old life and a rising to newness of life in Christ. It is an invitation to experience spiritual renewal and a deeper connection with God.
Baptism is a sacred and symbolic ritual in which a person publicly declares their faith in Jesus Christ. It involves immersing the believer in water, representing the cleansing of sins and the identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.
Baptism is open to anyone who has made a personal decision to follow Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. It is a step of obedience and a public declaration of faith in Him.
Baptism is an opportunity to publicly express your faith and commitment to Christ. It symbolizes the inward transformation that has taken place in your life and serves as a testimony of your new identity as a follower of Jesus.
Before being baptized, we encourage individuals to have a personal conversation with one of our pastors or leaders. They will guide you through the process, explain the significance of baptism, and answer any questions you may have.
During the baptism ceremony, you will be immersed in water by one of our pastors or leaders. This act symbolizes the death of your old self and the rising to a new life in Christ. It is a moment of celebration and a powerful testimony of your faith.
Absolutely! We encourage your family and friends to join us and witness this significant moment in your spiritual journey. Their presence and support will be an encouragement to you as you take this important step.
