Baptism or Confirmation? Holy Baptism in the Episcopal Church is the sacrament by which God adopts us
as his children and makes us members of Christ's Body, the Church, and
inheritors of the kingdom of God. Confirmation is the rite
in which we express a mature commitment to Christ, and receive strength from
the Holy Spirit through prayer and the laying on of hands by a Bishop. Find out

have used through the years such as centering prayer, healing prayer and
other related issues. Please join us and share with us on our journey of
faith in the Word. St.
