Inside Shalom

​​

In the year 1525, a group of believers was trying to decide how to respond to a law passed in Zurich that required all infants to be baptized, which conflicted with their conviction that baptism ought to be a voluntary decision made by an adult, not one that was thrust upon children by the government. During that meeting, they were inspired to baptize one another, despite the fact that they themselves had been baptized as infants, as a way of expressing their personal faith in Christ and willingness to undergo persecution to spread the good news. Thus, the Anabaptist movement was born, and this year - 500 years later - we will be looking back at the legacy they have left behind as we carry on that movement into the 21st century. We invite you to join us for worship and fellowship and discover how this very old tradition still speaks to us today.
