Baptism is an important and celebrated part of the Christian journey. We believe in infant baptism as well as believers baptism. The Sacrament of baptism is a holy and special gift that allows us to publicly celebrate our faith in Christ. As Methodists we believe in three modes of baptism: sprinkling, pouring, and immersion.

Can I be "re-baptized"?
If you were baptized in another Christian church, you will not be "re-baptized" at First Methodist Church Ardmore. We believe God was active in your life far before coming to church here and that the sacraments can only be received once. However, we do remember baptisms where you can "remember your baptism and be thankful."
