Raised To New Life

Why be baptized?

• Public declaration: Baptism is a visible testimony of the inward work God has done in your life.

• New beginning: It symbolizes leaving the old behind and stepping into new life in Christ.

• Community welcome: Share the moment with family, friends, and the Matoaca Christian Fellowship community who will stand with you in prayer and support.

Baptism, whether held at Matoaca Christian Fellowship or at the river, is an outward demonstration of the inward transformation that occurs when a person chooses to follow Jesus. It symbolizes dying to an old life and rising to new life in Christ, publicly declaring faith and obedience.

If you are uncertain about what it means to “accept Christ as Savior,” please contact Pastor Roger Toler at 804-229-4210. He would be glad to speak with you and answer any questions.
