baptism

an outward sign of a inward grace

Who should be baptized?

People of all ages can be baptized at Westfield. Non-members are encouraged to seek membership as soon as possible after being baptized. We baptize by sprinkling Holy Water and making the sign of the cross on the forehead to invite the presence of the Holy Spirit.

The United Church of Christ recognizes baptisms from other faiths and churches and therefore does not re-baptize people, but we do encourage people to attend a special baptism worship service to remember their baptisms.

When do baptisms occur?

Throughout the year during worship on Sunday mornings.

 

How do I schedule a baptism?

The scheduling of baptisms starts with a conversation with our pastor, the Reverend Dr. Jonathan Chapman. Find a time to chat with him in person, via phone, or Zoom by clicking this link or calling the church office at 860-774-8438.

& Carb

the legacy of the springtime festival lingers

Danielson has long had a festival in the spring welcoming the warmer months of the year after the frozen, long winter nights that have kept us inside. The Daffodil Bazaar, Vendor Fair & Carb Carnival featuring the Springtime Classic 5k carries on that tradition. 

 

 

What's the same

Two events of previous SpringFest weekends will continue this year. All events open at 8am. The Springtime Classic 5k kicks off registration at 8am, with the run starting at 8:30am. Additionally, the doors of the church will swing open at 8am with have tons of vendors and crafters kicking off the Vendor Fair.

 

 

What's Newer

The Daffodil Bazaar returns for it's second blooming year! Westfield has long been known for its Winter Wonderland Bazaar & Craft Fair--a tradition more than 85 years in the making. This year, we're introducing our Carb Carnival--a springtime version featuring their famed bakery room, great raffles, and tons of fun for kiddos along with a tasty luncheon offering from 11a-1p.
