Baptism

In a convoluted way, it started with my son's baptism video being seen by my best friend Jenny and ended, with this video, at Applegate Calvary Chapel near Medford, Oregon. There, on May 16, 2010, I was baptized. The Holy Spirit was in my heart and I felt wonderful! Pastor Ben's evangelical will was persuasive and charismatic and honest for me that day. I had never been to Applegate before. It is a wonderful chapel; the people are warm and friendly, the burgers are tasty and the worship music, inspired.

Thanks to Mikel for taking time so I could have pictures of my baptism. Thanks to Phil and his family for his prayers on my new relationship with Jesus. Thanks to the pastor team for the extra prayers and insights on baptism and Jesus. You are all awesome people and a blessing to me and many others, I am sure. God Bless you all. And.. a special thanks to my son, Ethan, for leading the way, with his baptism. Without that, I may still be lost. You are my greatest earthly joy, son, and I love you very much. God bless you, son.
