Welcome. We’re glad you’re here!
General Info
As First Friends Church, we live to glorify God together by loving Him, making disciples, and proclaiming the gospel.
We believe baptism is:
- Taught by Christ as a sign of commitment to believe and follow Him – Matthew 28:19-20
- A sign of “repentance”, which means to change your mind and actions away from sin and toward Jesus – Acts 2:38
- Best experienced by total “immersion” under the water as a symbol of dying to sin and being resurrected into spirit life – Romans 6:1-6
- An outward symbol of internal faith; not necessary for salvation – Ephesians 2:8-9; 1 Peter 3:18-21
