Baptism

Baptism is the sacrament of initiation into the body of Christ, the Church, which joins the new member with Christians everywhere.

Under the guidance of the church, candidates carefully consider their motives for baptism and their willingness to accept the responsibilities of Christian life.

Under the guidance of disciplers / sponsors, candidates participate regularly in the life of the church, attend worship services, study the Bible and learn to follow Christ's teachings in daily life.

Membership

When persons unite with a local Methodist church, they profess their faith in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son; and in the Holy Spirit. Thus, they make known their desire to live their daily lives as disciples of Jesus Christ. They covenant together with God and with the members of the local church to keep the vows which are part of the order of confirmation and reception into the Church.

1. To confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and pledge their allegiance to His kingdom.
2.To receive and profess the Christian faith as contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments.
3. To promise according to the grace given them to live a Christian life and always remain faithful members of Christ's holy Church.
4. And to be loyal to The Methodist Church and uphold it by their prayers, their presence, their gifts, and their service.
