Baptisms at Trinity Methodist Church in Jacksonville
Is the Lord inviting you to start anew? Baptism represents a holy sign of inner grace, a gentle welcome to join our church family and follow the way of Christ as one community.
Sacred Baptism
Baptism is an outward sign of God’s grace and our new life in Jesus Christ. At Trinity, we celebrate both infant and adult baptism. Our pastor will help you understand the meaning of baptism and choose the appropriate method for you or your child.
Baptism is also a promise made within the church family. As a congregation, we commit to encourage, teach, pray for, and walk alongside each person who is baptized.
