Several times throughout the year, Pastor Jeff offers a class for those interested in making a faith decision for Christ or for those interested in learning more about what it means to follow Jesus and experience baptism.  The class is geared toward individuals between 6 and 18 years of age who have expressed interest in making a faith decision or who have recently made a faith decision and have not been baptized; but persons of any age are welcome to attend if interested in being baptized.

At Oakland, baptism is administered by the Pastor through immersion. While this reflects our practice for those who have made a profession of faith, we gladly welcome into membership all who have been baptized, whether by immersion, sprinkling, or pouring.
