Holy Water

Baptism Font

The entrance to our Worship Center, like that of many newer churches throughout the country, holds one large font of water, rather than several. Thus the water with which we sign ourselves at worship is contained in the same font used for baptizing. There is a reason for this: the very font of life used for baptisms is also used as a reminder of its meaning. As we sign ourselves with water, we recall that through baptism we are children of one Father, sisters and brothers of Christ Jesus, members of God’s family who have the right and the joy to worship together at the Table of God’s Word and Eucharist.
