Engaging in the Sacrament of Holy Baptism means you are not only God’s Child, but you also become a part of Holy Trinity’s Church Family! Parents of infants and toddlers can expect to start receiving monthly newsletters with information on how to incorporate faith formation into the events of daily life. You will continue to receive these newsletters until your infant or toddler reaches 3 years old. At that time he or she is ready and welcome to join us for Children’s Sunday School.
For more information on being baptized at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church contact Senior Pastor Joel at the church office, (717)-397-2734.
