Celebration
Open air baptisms at Easter
Hundreds of people gathered outside for a public baptism service on Easter Sunday in Chichester’s Church Square. The baptisms, a declaration of faith, tied in with a celebration of Jesus’ resurrection. The square outside St Pancras Church was packed for the open air service, which saw James Oldman, James Allman, Sarah Bayley and Jay Jay Bayley baptised in a splash pool, two by full immersion. Worship songs and testimonies for the baptisms were followed by a celebratory glass of Prosecco and mini Easter eggs.
