Baptism and Welcoming Baby Celebration

In the Bible, God tells us that children are a blessing and a gift! Their spirits are filled with innocence, joy, and laughter. Jesus actually tells us to be like children and to come to Him full of faith and trust.  
 Proverbs 22:6: "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
Baptism
 We are overjoyed to celebrate the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, and if you are inquiring about baptism for yourself or for your child, please do not hesitate to contact the church office to arrange a meeting with the Pastor. By phone: 218-937-5499 or email info@gprparish.org
Holy Baptism is one of two sacraments in the Lutheran Church, and is the foundation of our lives as Christians. Baptism is an event through which God’s promises of love and life everlasting are announced and enacted, and in which the person being baptized (or their parents, in the case of an infant baptism) makes vows to lead a Christian life. 
Welcoming Babies Celebration Sunday
After a baby has been baptized - each year on Rally Sunday (typically the Sunday after Labor Day weekend) we celebrate with families in once again introducing newly baptized babies to the congregation. We all know that it truly takes a village to rise up a child. We as GPR Parish members want to help you on your family's faith journey within our congregation.
