Our Sacraments

In The United Methodist Church, we practice two Sacraments. These are Holy Communion and Baptism.

Baptism

As United Methodists, we believe that each person has a journey of faith. The Sacrament of Baptism is the initiation of that journey. Baptism in the Christian Church is an outward symbol of dedication and new life in Christ. Baptism reminds us that God is still there with us, and that God has not left us and is constantly seeking to move us towards perfection with God’s grace. We practice one baptism in a person’s life. This can be through sprinkling or immersion and can happen, regardless of age. At any time, a person may choose to reaffirm their Baptism which is a moment between that person and God, remembering God’s grace that was present at their Baptism and that God is with them always. This is not re-baptism as in The United Methodist Church, we do not believe in re-baptizing. If you have a question on the Sacrament of Baptism or would like to be baptized, please contact us (contact us hyperlink to CU page) and we will be in touch.

Holy Communion

As United Methodists, we believe that the Sacrament of Holy Communion is a transforming Sacrament of God’s grace to the people who partake. It is life-giving and sustaining for our journey. This Sacrament is known to United Methodists as a Holy Mystery and does many things that we cannot explain in our lives. We believe in the Real Presence of Christ at this Sacrament. Anyone is welcome to the table. You do not need to be baptized to receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion. We welcome all to the Table! There are no prerequisites. There are no exceptions. Come to the Table and be changed!
