Next Steps

Ready to take the next step?

We know it's often difficult to know what the next step to take is when attending a new church. This page is dedicated to some great next steps! If you have any questions, reach out to Shoji McGhee, Director of Connections, at 417-881-6800 or shoji@schweitzer.church.
NEXT is an interactive, three-session introduction to the story of Schweitzer and how your story connects to the larger body of Christ. This opportunity is designed for new guests who want to know more about Schweitzer Church, curious explorers who are ready to dive deeper in their faith, and potential members.

GROUPS & CLASSES

Schweitzer has many ongoing groups and classes that can help you connect with others and dive deeper into your faith.

If you aren't sure about being part of an ongoing group, check out our Upcoming Events Calendar for additional opportunities.

BAPTISM

Baptism is a symbol of the new covenant of grace as circumcision was the symbol of the old covenant. Water baptism signifies acceptance of the benefits of the atonement of Jesus Christ to be administered to believers as declaration of their faith in Jesus Christ as Savior.

Since infants are recognized as being included in the atonement, they may be baptized upon the request of parents or guardians.
If you would like to know more about baptism for yourself or infant baptism for your child, we would love to talk with you.
