I want to be baptized!
Baptism and Communion
Baptism and the Lord’s Supper (Communion) are Jesus’ visible signs to us of His grace. Communion or the Lord’s Supper is a recurring celebration and declaration of Jesus sacrifice for us. As with baptism, receiving the Lord’s Supper does not save a person, but recognizes what Jesus Christ has done to save us. Jesus gave no specific instructions on how often to observe communion. At Southside we serve communion periodically in the weekend services. For more information and specific Scriptures on the Lord’s Supper, please refer to our Statement of Faith.
After trusting Christ for the forgiveness of sins, we follow Him by being baptized in order to publicly identify ourselves with Him as His followers. Baptism does not save a person, but serves as a declaration that Christ has saved them. We conduct several baptisms throughout the year—the most prominent being the Sunday before VBS in the tent. For more information and specific Scriptures on Baptism, please refer to our Statement of Faith. If you’d like to be baptized, please call the church at 535-2301 or sign up.
