Join us for beach baptisms!

Zuma Beach in Malibu on September 27, 2026 at 4pm

Free street parking is available along Pacific Coast Highway (AKA Zuma Beach Access Rd), or you can park in the lots for $15 per vehicle. Entrance to the lots is located at 30000 Pacific Coast Hwy, which is across the street from Spruzzo’s Restaurant.

If you are getting baptized, please arrive no later than 3:30pm. We will meet between Lifeguard Towers #7 & 8; look for the blue Calvary popup tents. Someone will be there to greet you and give further directions. They will also explain the baptism process so it’s important that you be on time. Family and friends are welcome to be with you during your baptism. There will be Calvary signs & flags located at the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway & Morning View Dr, which is across the street from Lifeguard Tower #7.

It is important that you wear proper attire when being baptized. Light colors can become transparent when they get wet and are not appropriate. Wetsuits are acceptable. This beach has a sandy bottom so water shoes are acceptable but not necessary. Don’t forget to bring a beach towel with you! 

Day 1: Pray That They Will Know Jesus

Scripture to Read

“Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” John 17:3

Things to Remember

  1. Your greatest hope for your child is not simply that they are successful, safe, happy, or well behaved. It is that they know Jesus.
  2. You can teach them about God, bring them to church, and model faith for them, but only God can transform their heart.


Prayers to Pray

  1. Jesus, help them know You. Open their eyes to see who You are and draw them into a genuine relationship with You.
  2. Jesus, help them love You. May their faith become more than knowledge, tradition, or something inherited from our family.
  3. Jesus, help them follow You. Give them a lifelong desire to trust You, obey You, and walk with You.
