Baptism at Witbank Baptist Church
There is deep joy in witnessing believers publicly declare their inward faith through water baptism. At WBC, baptism is a visible testimony of the grace already received—a step of obedience, humility, and worship. Each baptism reminds us of the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, and the believer’s union with Him.
“We were buried therefore with Him by baptism into death…” — Romans 6:4
Life as a Member
As a member of WBC, you’ll be encouraged to:
Join our prayer and Bible study groups
Grow spiritually through Sunday Seminary and teaching
Connect with elders or deacons to explore areas of service
Be equipped for ministry, just as believers were in the New Testament
“To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.” — 1 Corinthians 12:7
Our Heart for Membership
