A New Beginning in Jesus Christ: Baptisms at The Light of the World
The Light of the World congregations in Canada came together for a joyful Baptism Ceremony, invoking the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins and the start of a new life in Him. This event was part of the first Holy Convocation in Canada, bringing together faithful from across the country.
The ceremony emphasized the importance of each person’s free decision to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and be baptized. As the attendees gathered and choir sang praises, men and women walked down the central aisle to confirm their decision to join The Light of the World.
The baptismal candidates, showing their acceptance, raised their right hand and answered “Amen” to the questions during the profession of faith. One by one, they were immersed in water by a Deacon authorized by the Apostle of Jesus Christ, fulfilling the teaching of our Lord.
“Let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins” – Acts 2:38
At the conclusion of baptisms, the church warmly welcomed the new members with a hymn and brotherly greetings. The newly baptized were invited to come forward for a prayer, asking God for strength and guidance on their new journey.
