Baptism Interest - Kids 2026

Baptism is a highlight of each season at Hillside.  We love the opportunity to celebrate the joyous occasion with those who choose to take the next step in their faith and publicly proclaim Christ.

Take a look at our "On Baptism" below, and if you are interested in being baptized, click the Register link and one of our pastors will be in touch with you soon.

On Baptism
We understand baptism to be only for those who profess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and that it is an act of obedience by those who subject themselves to His sovereignty.

We believe baptism symbolizes the spiritual cleansing and conversion of believers and is thus an essential part of one's faith but does not in and of itself save.

We baptize by immersion, and honor other modes of baptism (sprinkling, pouring etc.) as long as it occurred after personal belief in Christ and was understood by the one being baptized. Otherwise we re-baptize.

As a biblical rite of initiation into the body of Christ, baptism of believers is considered a prerequisite for joining the membership of the church.

Children K-6th who are interested in being baptized are REQUIRED to take a  class called Taking The Plunge before baptism.  Once this class has been scheduled, you will be emailed the link to register. 

***We do take photos of Baptisms. We will share a group link to all those who participate.***
