Holy Lutheran Baptism in Edmonton
The sacrament of Holy Baptism is rooted in the teachings of the Bible and is highly important in the lives of believers and the community of faith.
Lutherans view baptism as a means of God's grace and a visible sign of initiation into the Christian community. We see it as a powerful act in which individuals are united with Christ, marked as children of God, and welcomed into the Christian community.
Baptism may happen at any point in one's life. Infant baptism is widely practiced, symbolizing God's unconditional love and grace even before an individual can fully comprehend it.
Baptism is usually performed by pouring or sprinkling water in a public worship service. The baptismal candidate is marked with oil as a sign of the Holy Spirit and receives a baptismal candle—being encouraged to let their light shine! Once baptized, that person becomes a member of the congregation.
