Baptism doesn't save you. But, it is the first step after accepting Christ. Jesus calls us to get baptized. It is a form of identifying yourself as a Christian. It is a way to publicly declare the Lord as your Savior.

I was baptized on April 4th, 2010 by Pastor John Bishop at Elevation's Easter 2010 worship experience at Time Warner Cable Arena. I will never forget that moment. To me getting baptized was a way to show my family and all who attended the worship experience that I had given my life to Christ. He saved me. It was a way of declaring that I will always do whatever it takes, go wherever He calls me and be who He wants me to be as a Christian. (This is a picture of me being baptized. I had just come out of the water.)
I can't stop reflecting on all of the lives changed over the last two weekends at Elevation. I love my church!!!!!
My son and i were baptized at Providence August 14, 2011 by Pastor Gene Lakey. Still thinking about it.
