Water Baptisms
About Water Baptisms
Water Baptism is an important step of obedience that shows others we have personally trusted Jesus for our salvation.
When Christians are baptised, they are submerged under water to identify with the death & burial of Jesus & raised out of the water to identify with His resurrection. We believe that water baptism is a public declaration of three important things: you are a follower of Jesus Christ, you are beginning a changed life in Christ, & you are part of a new family.
Baptism is an outward expression of what you have already decided in your heart.
At Oasis Church, we want every person to grow in their walk with God, we believe that this is best done in community. Our desire is that everyone who is baptised at Oasis would be connected in relationship within the church.
Baptism at Oasis may be your first step in being integrated into our community, we would love to have you along to our Sunday services and see you grow in a connect group.

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”

What if my child wants to get baptised?
That’s awesome. We believe that faith in Jesus is a personal decision. It is important for each person or child to understand what believing in Jesus and getting baptised means. Our Next Gen team would love to journey with your child to help them take their next faith step. Baptism of children under 18 is explored and guided on an individual basis by our experienced Next Gen team.
What do I wear?
Bathers under shorts & a t-shirt work best! We’ll provide you with a water baptism t-shirt on the day to wear as you are being baptised.
What else do I need to know?
As you prepare to be water baptised, in the week prior to water baptism we run a pre water baptism class, where you can prepare for your baptism. We also encourage you to put together a 2 minute testimony which you will share with the church congregation at your Baptism. They would love to hear the amazing things God has done in your life.
