Each summer we gather Downtown in the Old City. We head out back, behind Remedy Coffee to the railroad tracks. We come together for a one of a kind celebration we call Baptism. We celebrate the life change, renewal and restoration that Jesus has brought to our community.
One by one, participants step into a small "kids"pool and proclaim their allegiance to Jesus Christ. One by one they share their story of how God has entered into their mess and made them into a new person. A new creation.
We celebrate. We laugh. We cheer. We clap. We cry.
It is a day like no other. It is a day where we get to observe just how amazing God is at changing hearts.
Then we eat BBQ and lots of it. Come on now, this is the South!
