Upon confessing the confession of faith and receiving the testimony of Jesus, participants are invited to make a public declaration of surrender by water baptism.  Baptism represents the old creation being crucified with Jesus, and rising up out of the water as a new creation.

“It was an amazing opportunity to be able to come here and be set free from everything.  Before coming here, I was not good.  I am happier now.”

"Just as I learned that my works did not secure my place in Heaven, I was struck with the thought that there might not be anything I could do to secure my healing.  It is God’s grace, rather than our efforts, that saves us and provides eternal life.  Similarly, I expect it will be by the grace of God, rather than my own actions, that I may be healed."
