A Baptism Update From Orlando

Let me give you an update of my last hour here at the conference.

Our baptism at the YMCA has gone to pot. We’ve done baptisms at the YMCA in the past and it has been beautiful, but they have a new director who is adamantly against this. Yes, the YOUNG MEN’S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION is against us doing baptisms there currently. Rachel, our church admin, regretfully informed me of this, so I started the calls. I called all the baptismees and informed them that we’ll most likely postpone to May 4. I called 2 elders, Mike Bailey and Brad Sigler, who are organizing a contingency plan, so they are running all of that down.

This isn’t a crisis obviously, but it is inconvenient and aggravating. So let’s be wide awake to how God is changing things and pray for Mike and Brad as they lead us here.

Thanks ya’ll. Now back to the conference. I’m walking into the middle of a breakout session. What the freak’s going on?

How about the "old fashion" way - the creek (or is it "crick") at Ritter Park? :p

Someone else mentioned that. Would we get cholera there?

I've played in the creek before and only had a minor rash from it... haaha.. kidding.

It should be fine. We tested the water in one of my science courses and it was clear of any deadly diseases.
