Baptism is the beginning of a lifelong journey of following Jesus.

Water poured on someone’s head while words are spoken. It sounds so simple, utterly ordinary. And yet when this ordinary water is connected with God’s word, God works a miracle. Through baptism He gives new life, forgives sins, pours out His Spirit, and enlarges His family here on earth.
It’s as if the heavens are torn open and God is beaming with pride, “You are my child, whom I love. With you I am well-pleased! I have called you by name; you are mine!” Incredible!
Since God is the one doing the work in baptism, even infants, who can’t confess faith in Jesus, are invited to receive this gift. On the other hand, if you’re an adult who’s never been baptized, why not now?
Do you want to follow Jesus but don’t know where to start? Are you seeking to raise a son or daughter as a follower of Jesus?
Begin with baptism.

How it happens?
Trinity celebrates baptisms during weekend worship services in order to share the joy of what God is doing and pray for each new brother or sister in Christ. Private baptisms are also available upon request.
Anytime you journey into new territory, it’s best to enlist the help of guides. These people help model for you how to live and show you where to go. Parents as well as godparents, or sponsors, have the privilege and the responsibility of serving as guides, spiritual leaders for the one being baptized. These godparents can be chosen by the baptized or the parents of the one being baptized, or the church can recruit individuals to step into this role as you might need. Journeying with Jesus is best when we do it together.
Marriage is a huge milestone in the life of a couple, and we cherish the opportunity to support you as you prepare for this journey.
"That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and the two become one flesh." - Genesis 2:24

- Upon approval of your application, after an initial meeting with the pastor, you will be asked to complete an online premarital assessment.

Memorial Services at Trinity are both personalized and purposeful, reflecting specifically on the life of the person and providing a structured environment that centers on eternal hope in Jesus Christ.
"Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on. "Yes." says the Sprirt, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."" -Revelation 14:13
Death is difficult. We are honored to provide an environment where you can grieve, remember, and celebrate your loved one. As Christians, we do grieve but with genuine and unshakable hope in the resurrection.
