Is your 4th-6th grader interested in being baptized? Baptism Bash is a special service where we celebrate the decision your student has made to follow Jesus. Every student can have a personal relationship with Jesus, and in GT Preteen Ministries we encourage each student to make a decision to follow Him. Our students are encouraged not just to learn about Jesus, but to learn from Him by walking with Him every day.

Water baptism is for students who regularly attend GT Church and requires the two-step process below.

Step 1 - Watch Start Here

Start Here is a 15-minute presentation where parents and students learn what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus. It is designed to help families begin talking about faith, and it is also the first step in our baptism process for preteens. Every preteen who is baptized must watch Start Here first with a parent prior to baptism. For more information, please contact our GT Kids Staff.

Parent Conversation Guide

After you've watched Start Here, please fill out this form to let us know. You will receive a devotional from us in the mail that you can share with your student.

Step 2 - Schedule a time to meet with our GT Preteens Director

This is a great opportunity for us to talk with you and your student before moving to the final steps of baptism preparation. We want to answer any questions that you or your child may have about their decision to be baptized.
