![The Death in Baptism]()
Baptism is an important part of the Christian walk and an important moment in the life of the church. We still plan to have our annual Water Baptism at Lake Michigan in August. But this is an opportunity to be baptized indoors. If you’d prefer to be baptized indoors during our church service please contact Pastor Phil.
What is Baptism?

The following blogs will give more insight into Mercy Hill Church's position on water baptism.

The most obvious example of baptism that we see in the Bible is that of Jesus Himself (Matt. 3). In that case, baptism served as confirmation from God the Father that Jesus was, in fact, who He claimed to be. But Jesus didn’t stop at merely setting an example of baptism. He went on to command in Matthew 28 that Christians should go into the world, preach the Gospel and baptize believers. Therefore, baptism is not just a recommendation for the believer, but a command for all those who have been saved by the grace of God, put their faith in Him and desire to obediently follow the Lord.
