Weddings and Baptisms
Weddings
​
The Margate Community Church is located two blocks from the Atlantic Ocean and offers two different settings for weddings. We have a spacious sanctuary that can seat over 250 people, or a Chapel which can handle up to 50 people for smaller and more intimate wedding ceremonies. Both locations are provided with central air-conditioning and full organ music. In addition, we can compliment a wedding with our beautiful garden courtyard which is often used for after-wedding pictures.
​
Any wedding held at the Margate Community Church must include the minister, but outside clergy may be invited to share in the wedding ceremony.
​
Since a wedding is a sacred and important life experience, we ask every couple to follow a few simple rules that help to govern a wedding at the Margate Community Church and that help to make your time with us memorable and meaningful.

Baptisms
Baptisms at the Margate Community Church are both a celebration of life and a commitment of faith. You do not have to be a member of the Margate Community Church to have your child baptized.
​
Baptisms are available during our 10:00 am Sunday Morning Worship. Scheduling for all Baptisms must be made through our Church Office.
​
Baptisms held during our Sunday Morning Worship become a part of the larger service and are celebrated in front of the whole congregation.
​
Baptisms are an expression of thankfulness by the parents for God’s blessing of life, they also recognize that God’s presence in every life is crucial for our fullness as a human being, and are a formal welcoming of the child into the universal community of faith we call the Christian Church.
