Baptism

Even though I have been a born again Christian since I was twelve years old, I have never been water baptized, that is until today. We were celebrating Eric's eleventh birthday at our campus pool. We had several missionaries attending. We were also blessed to have Pastor Tim Lovelace and his wife here. They also happen to be Vice Presidents of Field Ministries with Calvary International. Tim did the honors for me, and also he baptized Eric and Faith.



At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. As Jesus was coming up out of the water, he say heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."

Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...
