Life Events
Child Dedications, Weddings, and Memorials are all significant life events that often take place within the church community and, when possible, within the church facilities. If you are inquiring about one of these events, each process is laid out below to guide your next steps.
Child Dedications
We are excited to hear that you would like to dedicate your child to the Lord, and we are honored to do this for regular attendees who consider Reality Ventura their home church. We need some information to confirm your baby’s dedication and schedule it on the calendar. Please follow the link below to fill out the form.
**Please Note: Baby dedications are done during our second service.**
Weddings
To have a wedding ceremony at Reality Ventura, we ask that the bride and/or groom regularly attend Reality Ventura and consider it their home church. Though some exceptions apply, we also ask that all couples complete biblical pre-marital counseling with one of our pastoral staff. Please note the following steps regarding Wedding Ceremonies.
Costs: As weddings take place outside of our normal operating hours, a fee will be required to cover costs
1) If you have not received Biblical pre-marital counseling, you can request counseling from one of our staff members or pastors.
2) Make an appointment to meet with the Pastor that you would like to officiate your ceremony. You can do this by reaching out to them directly via email. View Directory
3) Once a pastor has accepted your request to officiate, complete the Facility Rental Form to secure your date. Once approved, a point person on our staff will coordinate with you during the rest of the planning process as it pertains to facility use.
Memorial Services
Memorial and Funeral services can be held for regular attendees who consider Reality Ventura their home church. Services at the church can be held Monday - Friday during regular business hours from 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM. Please note the following steps regarding Memorial and Funeral services.
Costs: Weekday memorials for standard services will be free of charge to church members. Weekday memorials with more significant requirements and Saturday memorials will require a fee to cover costs.

Baptism
Being baptized in Jesus’ name shows your identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection (Acts 2:38; Romans 6:3-8; Colossians 2:12; 1 Peter 3:21). In baptism, you as a believer are publicly testifying that when Christ died on the cross for your sins, you died to your former life of sin against God. But as Christ was raised from the dead, so you were also raised to eternal life in relationship with him. Baptism is thus a public declaration and a picture of the salvation found in Christ.
We look forward to celebrating with you! Please take time to read what we believe about baptism HERE. Please register if you agree with the explanation and want to be baptized at Reality. This will help us plan and determine our next baptism date.
