Our Starting Point class is not required to be baptized, however, it is recommended prior to baptism. Starting Point will give you a sneak peek into the basic beliefs and practices of CCV and equip you with the essentials of the Christian faith. This class is geared for adults, Jr High and High School students. Find the next Starting Point class.

For children in 4th-6th grade we offer a Baptism for Kids class. If a child under the age of 8 is interested in being baptized, we suggest that he or she meet with a pastor prior being baptized to be sure the child fully understands the decision being made. Learn more about Baptism For Kids.
