"a very cool night"

tonight, Megan and Carly Manarelli got baptized in the service at ROCKHARBOR. Megan is a 5th grader who i’ve known for a year and a half now and Carly is her 1st grade sister who is, clearly, my best friend. anyway, when you’re getting baptized, you can ask for anyone you want to actually do it and Megan asked me. (Carly asked Stacy.) this was a very cool honor.

now, if you’ve never been to a baptism at
ROCKHARBOR, let me set the stage for you. it’s just about the end of the service and there is an inflatable pool on stage. as each person is brought up to be baptized, the worship team is playing and the whole place is singing. each time a person goes under, the place goes nuts. i mean... yelling and cheering like the home team just scored a touchdown. (the first, and probably last sports analogy you’ll ever read on this blog.) it’s a pretty cool experience and i try to make it to all of them.

i’ll let the pictures tell the rest of the story. (look for
Poison guitarist, CeCe Deville in one of the pictures. i guess he became a Christian and has been coming to ROCKHARBOR for a while now.)
