BAPTISM

When someone decides to ‘get right with God’, part of the outward expression of their commitment to following Jesus Christ, is being baptised. It is one of the best decisions a Christian can make and just reinforces an exciting and adventurous journey with the Creator of all.

In order to have a full understanding of the need for Baptism, Watoto Church hosts prep classes where open discussions and Q&As are encouraged. Thereafter, a beautiful ceremony is held as part of the weekly celebration. Baptism happens every 2nd Sunday of the month at all Watoto Church celebration points.

Pick a form, fill and submit it at your celebration point a week before the baptism Sunday
