SUMMARY:Believe and Be Baptized - A Workshop with John D. Roth
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nWorkshop: Believe and Be Baptized: Conversations on a 500-year-old Tradition \nColumbus Mennonite Church \nNov. 6\, 2021 \n9:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. \nThis workshop is being co-hosted by Central District Conference and the Ohio Conference. \nIn 2025\, Anabaptist-Mennonites around the world will commemorate the 500th anniversary of the first voluntary baptisms in Zurich\, Switzerland\, on Jan. 21\, 1525\, that marked the symbolic beginning of the Anabaptist movement. In the five centuries since that event\, adult — or believers — baptism continues to be a significant point of identity for Mennonites\, Amish\, Hutterites and other groups associated with the Anabaptist tradition. \nYet despite its central importance\, baptism has continued to generate a host of important questions in Anabaptist-Mennonite congregations: \n\nDoes the mode of baptism matter?\nWhat is the appropriate age of baptism (especially for those who are raised in the church?)\nHow do we know if a candidate is ready for baptism? What kind of instruction is required?\nWhat is the link between baptism and church membership? or Christian discipleship?\nHow do we appropriately invite young people and visitors to baptism?\nWhat is the relationship between God’s initiative of grace and the human response?\nCan adult baptism be repeated?\nShould newcomers who were baptized as infants be rebaptized?\nWhat is our understanding of baptism for the cognitively impaired?\n\nRecently\, representatives of the Mennonite World Conference\, the Lutheran World Federation\, and the Roman Catholic Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity explored many of these questions in a groundbreaking five-year ecumenical conversation. Led by historian John D. Roth\, this workshop will introduce participants to this Trilateral Dialogue and invite Mennonite participants to come to a deeper understanding of baptism through conversations with each other and with local Lutheran and Catholic clergy. \nThis workshop is open to everyone in the Ohio Conference. There is no charge for this workshop\, but registration is required. Funding for the event is provided through a grant that John D. Roth has received. Lunch will be provided. \nRegistration will remain open through Oct. 25\, 2021. \nRegister Now \n \n\n\n	Related
