Baptism

I've been busy all afternoon getting set up for baptism in this evening's church service at the prison. It's always hectic, but always exciting, too.

As we were filling the baptistry, a number of those being baptized this evening were standing around sharing testimonies and stories, and laughing and cutting up with me. They were barely able to conceal their joy at the prospect of making this very public pronouncement of faith in Christ in just a few hours.

I pray they'll never forget what happens here tonight. May it leave an indelible mark in their lives.
