Hundreds of churches will partner with Baptize California to host baptisms across the state, the largest at beachside in Huntington Beach, California.

After last year’s successful Baptize SoCal event, which brought together 280 churches and baptized over 4,100 people on May 18, 2023, at Pirate’s Cove in Corona del Mar, California, this year, Baptize California is onboarding churches across the state of California to host unified baptism events on Sunday, May 19th, 2024, with the goal of witnessing the largest synchronized water baptism in history.

The Baptize California organization is preparing churches across the state to host a baptism event after their last scheduled service on the 19th, capturing data and media to send to the central team. This information will be on display almost immediately during the afternoon and evening of the headquartered event in Huntington Beach. Event attendees can watch California unify under hundreds and thousands of people professing their faith in Jesus in the middle of worship, prayer, and water baptisms in the ocean.

Pastor Mark Francey of Oceans Church, the host of the event, said, “God has more in store for California, as evident in the increasing resurgence and spiritual hunger among individuals and churches in the state, fostering a sense of unity and promoting widespread spiritual awakening.” Francey concluded, “God is not done with America, and we are convinced that if we can unite the Church and turn fully back to Jesus, He will heal our land.”

Baptize California’s next water baptism event is Sunday, May 19th, 2024. It will continue to be a multi-church gathering. Francey shares, “We’re inviting churches across California to participate for free, hosting a Baptize California baptism event at their campus on Sunday, May 19th.”  Churches that would like to join or get involved are welcome to sign up to participate.
