Life Events
Life is full of surprises and celebrations. Sometimes, exciting and happy, sometimes heartbreaking and painful. Often, stressful. Whether you are planning a baptism, a wedding, or a funeral, we are here to help you.
Baptism
The sacrament of baptism is an outward and visible sign of the grace of God. Infants, children, youth and adults can be baptized. Baptism is a personal celebration in the lives of the individual candidates and their families. It is also a celebration within the local church family and a recognition of its commitment. For this reason, baptism is celebrated in the presence of the community gathered for worship on Sunday. If circumstances require baptism to take place outside of corporate worship, members of the local church, if possible, may participate in the ceremony with the pastor.
Wedding
The marriage ceremony is the wonderful occasion on which two people unite in the mutual exchange of covenant promises. Ours is a beautiful sanctuary and is therefore an appealing place for wedding ceremonies. We marry couples of all sorts here, understanding that God's love is manifest in manifold ways. In this, we rejoice and would welcome hearing from you if you'd like to celebrate the beginning of your marriage here.
Funeral
Losing a loved one to death is one of the most profound moments in anyone’s life. Funeral ceremonies help family and friends to acknowledge and celebrate the life of the person and find support as they face the pain of loss. We can officiate ceremonies or celebrations of life in the sanctuary or graveside, at the funeral home, or in any other location.
