What to Know

about Baptism at Crossroads

1. What does Crossroads believe about baptism?

Baptism is the outward declaration of an inward decision of faith. This means it isn't a requirement for salvation—rather, it's an expression of salvation you already received when you accepted Christ as Lord. Baptism allows you to share and celebrate the new life you have in Christ with our church family.

2. How do I write my testimony?

We believe that everyone has a story to tell. Just as each of us is unique, so is the Lord’s way of reaching and awakening our hearts to His truth.

As you prepare for baptism and begin writing out your testimony, use the guide below to help you craft your story.

3. How can I apply to be baptized?

It's easy! Simply fill out our baptism application—which will ask for a life verse, your story, and why you believe the Lord is calling you to take this step now. We'll reach out to discuss your testimony and guide you through our baptism process.

Before Baptism Class

Sunday, October 18
Both Campuses

Do you have a child that's expressed interest in being baptized—or that you simply want to start the conversation with? Then join us after the 11am services for our Before Baptism Class! Through teaching, activities, and prayer, we'll equip you and your child to explore the meaning of baptism together and help prepare them for this important step of faith.

The Before Baptism Class is a prerequisite to being baptized for all children at Crossroads—but is an optional resource for our middle and high schoolers. Sign up below at the campus you and your child attend!
