Last night Nathan, our Student Pastor, baptized 12 students, outdoors, in a wading pool.  That’s cool, anytime that happens.  I know lots of churches where this kind of thing occurs.  But there were two other things that touched my heart.

First, we announced in Trulife (mid-week worship) that we were doing this.  And 80% of the adults from Trulife came down to cheer on the students who were being baptized.  When you see a senior adult applauding a student being baptized in a wading pool outdoors - that is way cool.

But I teared up when I saw my daughters embracing and celebrating with their friends.  They were jazzed about their friends taking their next step.  And it made me give God thanks for letting me pastor ADBC.
