Baptism card - Apostle’s creed

Celebrate a baptism with this fun baptism card which says “celebrating your baptism” superimposed on the words of the Apostle’s creed, perfect for the day when someone declares their faith in Jesus publicly.

The words of the Apostle’s creed hand lettered on a baptism card.

This Christian baptism card for adults is fun, with a serious note. The words “celebrating your baptism” are hand lettered in bright red on a light green/blue (mint green) background. Behind the greeting “celebrating your baptism”, the words of the Apostle’s creed are hand lettered in a turquoise blue/green. From far away, this baptism card’s main feature is the red writing, but looking at it closer, the deeper meaning of the writing is seen.

The Apostle’s creed or Apostolic Creed is a declaration of faith - the word creed means ‘I believe and trust’ and is a statement of the Church’s faith which is adopted by Christians and affirmed during baptism. The words are as follows:

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

About this bible-based adult Baptism card, and what to write in it

The card is blank inside for your own message. Examples of what to write in a believer's baptism card include messages of support, congratulations and celebration as they declare publicly their trust in Jesus and belief in the words spoken by the Church through the centuries. Rejoice with them, as baptism is an outward testimony of an inward transformation - a transformation performed by God.

They are buried with Christ into death, so that, like Christ they are raised to new life, by the glory of God the Father. This means they can walk in newness of life (as Romans 6:4 says).

This card is one of a growing collection of cards suitable to give and celebrate an adult baptism and comes from an observation that modern and Bible-based or biblical baptism cards are few and far between.
