Baptism

“Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”
Acts 2:38

What Is Baptism?

Baptism is an external expression of the reality that you have chosen to follow Jesus. Through the act of being immersed under water and being brought back up, you are identifying with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. At Cityline, we make baptism available during our weekend services or at any other time you’d like. Any other baptized follower of Jesus can baptize you. In fact, we encourage you to have someone who has played a significant role in your spiritual journey to be a part of it with you.

Our next Baptism Sunday is August 16, 2026.
