This student wanted to affirm publicly and proclaim to the church that he is a follower of Jesus. I took part in the celebration as along with the pastor I walked into the pool and assisted in this expression of faith by immersing the student in water. It is not the water in the pool that is significant especially since it was ice cold. This is a reminder of the living water that is Christ Jesus and that knowing Him as Lord and Savior we will never thirst again. What a great way to celebrate the end of the semester/year!
