BAPTISM AT PEACHTREE At Peachtree, we celebrate both infant and believer baptism. For infants, baptism marks the official beginning of the partnership between the church and the family to raise the child as Jesus’ disciple.

When a child is baptized, the parents make a profession of faith on behalf of their child. As the parents claim that Jesus is their Lord and Savior, they also make commitments to raise their child to know Jesus Christ. In baptism, a child becomes a part of the church family, but they must one day make their own decision to follow Jesus Christ.

Requirements

The child being baptized must be 18 months of age or younger.

At least one parent must be an active and local member of Peachtree Presbyterian Church.

At least one parent must attend a Baptism Workshop prior to the Baptism Sunday selected (even if prevously attended for another child).

To register your child, visit: PeachtreeChurch.org/Baptism

Milestones

Just as families keep in touch about joys and sorrows, our church family at Peachtree wants to do the same. During your prayers this week, we ask you to lift up these people to God.

FAMILY MEMBER DEATH James S. Kidd  9/28 Father of Mary Elizabeth Barker
