BAPTISM is one very special way God delivers the blessings Jesus has won for us! In baptism, God pours out His grace and His Spirit on us “..so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life” (Titus 3:7). One of our pastors is ready to meet with you! To learn more email smang@sllcs.org or call 407-365-3408.
