In every person’s life there are "acts of significance" - places, times, and actions we remember as long as we live. For those of us who follow Jesus, one of those acts is the day of our baptism. At East Side we love being a partner with those who declare, "I am a follower of Jesus," by being baptized in a public act of worship. If you would like to make such a declaration, you are invited to an information meeting to find out more. Please let us know your intent to attend by signing up.
