Next Steps coaches invite you to sit down and share about yourself; who you are and how you would like to get involved at Sunset.

Baptism

Sunset Presbyterian Church believes that salvation is always a matter of one’s repenting of sins and coming to faith in Jesus Christ. Baptism uniquely portrays the believer’s union with Christ’s death, burial and resurrection. Baptism does not bring us into salvation but rather helps us demonstrate our salvation that comes by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.


If you're interested in learning about baptism at our church, please read this document. You can also fill out this form to sign up and learn more about baptism at Sunset.



Baptism Classes


We encourage those who have come to Christ as children, youth, or adults, and have not been baptized as infants, to be baptized as a public profession of faith. If you've been feeling a nudge by the Holy Spirit to proclaim your faith through baptism, we encourage you to take our upcoming class. This class is for anyone who is interested in being baptized.


Our next baptism class will be posted soon.



Membership

Is membership in my church really necessary if I am a committed, involved believer?

Jesus did not come simply to give us a ticket to heaven, but to create a new community full of people who are mutually committed to one another in deep, authentic relationships, compelled by Christ's love to support, encourage, challenge, love and meet one another's needs. Just as marriage is an all or nothing commitment to another person, so the Church is married to Christ, but this also means we are married to his Church. This is an unseen spiritual reality for all of us that must be practically real, too. Membership in a local church is the tangible expression of a spiritual reality. See Attachment on Membership >

Membership at Sunset is attained by attending a Membership Class (taught twice a year by our teaching team), through Divine Design, a tool for sharing one's talents, interests and passions, with a trained Coach; meeting with our pastors, and celebrating with church family at a Sunday Service.
