Baptism Class

This three-part mandatory class helps third- and fourth-grade children prepare for baptism. The class is open to children in that age range who have trusted Christ as their Savior. Each class lasts approximately one hour. A parent is required to attend each class with his or her child. We also offer a baptism class for preteens (fifth- and sixth-grade children) and a class for teens and adults.

Stonebriar's Policy on Infant Baptism 

We believe that baptism is a public statement of faith that can be made only by someone who personally believes in Christ. Infants cannot make that personal decision to believe in Jesus. Older children, however, can make that decision, so we do offer baptism for children in third and fourth grades and older. 

We also offer Child Dedication. Child Dedication is a ceremony that signifies the parents' commitment to raise their child in a Christian home and church where he or she can come to know, love, and serve Jesus. It signifies a commitment by the people of Stonebriar to provide a loving, biblical community that supports and prays for the dedicated family.

Steps to Enrolling Your Child

  1. Talk to your child.

    If your child has trusted in Christ as their Savior, talk to him or her about taking this class. Baptism should be a personal decision and is not a requirement for salvation or for attending Stonebriar.

  2. Choose a class.

    First Session of Elementary Baptism Class Dates:

    • Sunday, January 29; Sunday, February 12; Sunday, February 19
      Sunday, February 26 is the baptism service

    Second Session of Elementary Baptism Class Dates:

    • TBD

    (All dates are subject to change)

    To assure a spot for your child in the baptism class we suggest that you complete the registration form one to two months prior to the first class date.

  3. Register before the class begins.

    Online registration is now closed.

    Email Lauren Newport for questions or concerns.

  4. Make plans for your child to attend the classes.

    Before the class starts, you will receive an e-mail explaining class dates, times, and room location. 

    After the class concludes, your child can choose to participate in the baptism service.
