“As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, “Look, here is water. Why shouldn’t I be baptized?” (Acts 8:36 NIV).
I helped hitch up our baptism trailer this morning.
We have a portable baptistry stored in a trailer. We are one of three churches that went in together to share the cost of owning a portable baptistry and a trailer. We decided from the start that we would share this with any new church that needed it. After all, we’re in this together.
So, when Pastor Don Brown from the Village Church at Holly Springs called asking to borrow our baptistry, we were thrilled to do so. Pastor Don planted a church near Raleigh that meets at Holly Springs Elementary School. They have some new believers that want to get baptized during the holidays. I think that’s a wonderful idea.
This morning I met Pastor Don and his friend Anthony at the CCS parking lot. We got the baptism trailer hitched up and I handed over the keys.
“Go get some people wet for Jesus!” I shouted, as we parted ways.
They’ll have no excuse now that the water has traveled to them “along the road.”
