Tony the Baptist...well kinda

So our chuch had a baptism this saturday. We do have a water shortage so we didnt have any water in the baptism tank to me and 13 others piled into a landcruser and went to a diffrent church that had some water and a baptism tank. The man getting baptised was pretty old so then said he needed some help with the baptism. I had shorts and sandals so i went in the tank with the man and pastor Shem and we dunked him, though their wasnt a lot of water in the tank so went he went down part of his back was out for the water so Shem said dunk him again. Finaly in the third dunk complete submergin. definitly an experince.
some have asked how my health has been over here. fot the most part really good. I had some diareha acouple times and i was sick and barfing one day but for the most part good

i can relate tony. i'm not always succesful at doing baptisms first round either. And once, i think i just about dunked a guy into unconsciousness. at least i made him bleed. but lets not take this thing of "baptism is death" to far.

i'm excited about the new newboy ministry.
