  Open Baptism

open baptism
At St. Nicholas we have an Open Baptism Policy.  That means, we are happy to baptize any adult who expresses a desire to follow Christ.  St. Nicholas is one of several Episcopal churches in the Diocese of Southeast Florida that offers Baptism “with no strings attached”.

An individual who seeks to be baptized, or to have a child baptized, is welcome without regard to their church membership, their faith tradition or other factors. Along with the offer of baptism, we announced that there will be no classes to attend, no requirements to fulfill, no preconditions to meet, no judgments expressed.  People can simply come and be baptized.  They would not have to affiliate with our church, or any church.  We encourage them to do so, but we leave the issue of church membership to their own consciences.

For more information on Open Baptism, please call the church office @954-942-5887.

Nehemiah Project

  The Nehemiah Project includes the entire Diocese of Southeast Florida.  Ten specific parishes have entered a covenant relationship to increase their average attendance at worship services.  St. Nicholas is one of the 10 parishes engaged in a transformational period of discernment, training and the implementation of a Ministry Plan.  The developing Ministry Plan will be designed to raise the attendance one level within three years.  The goal is to eventually minister to a parish family of 500 average attendees at worship services.  As the plan is implemented, successful  tasks and characteristics will have transferable capability for use throughout the diocese.

For more information on the Nehemiah Project, please contact Donald Coleman at
(954)781-3385.

Home and Hospital

 

After Sunday services each week, a team of two transforms the beautiful Altar flowers into four or six individual bouquets.  The bouquets are then taken to our homebound parishioners and/or to Episcopal patients at the North Broward Hospital.  Through an arrangement with the hospital, a list is provided of patients who are able to receive the flowers.  Along with the bouquet of flowers, each patient receives a Sunday Bulletin and a St. Nicholas Church calling card.  This provides an opportunity for the recipient to request a visit or call.  Additionally, get-well cards are sent to parishioners who are shut-in and/or ill. 

If you would like to participate in this ministry, please contact Fran Scott or call the Church Office @954-942-5887 and leave your name, telephone number and the best time to return your call.
