GOOD NEWS
Jesus invites you to a journey of faith. This is a journey towards him in discovery and a journey with him in relationship. The best place to learn about the faith is with the people of faith. Mimico Baptist Church is a safe, fun and exciting place to experience and explore issues of faith. Consider Alpha, or other opportunities to learn.
To embrace the Christian faith or rather to be embraced by it consider your response to Jesus.
Look at these passages.
The Resurrection of Christ
1Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to
you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2By
this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you.
Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance :
that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4that he
was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
5and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6After
that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time,
most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.
8But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your
mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:
9That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in
your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10For
it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your
mouth that you confess and are saved. 11As the Scripture says,
"Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12For there
is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and
richly blesses all who call on him, 13for, "Everyone who calls on
the name of the Lord will be saved."

The following is a suggested prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus:
I know that I need your cleansing and forgiveness. I confess that I am a sinner. I believe that you died for my sin. I want now to live for you. I invite you into my life. I trust you as Saviour and Lord. I will live and serve in the family and mission of your church. Amen
This may mark the end of your journey to Christ but it is only the beginning of your journey with Christ.
