Diving in the water

Gijs, one of the younger guys I'm coaching, asked me last month if I would be willing to baptize him. I told him jokingly that I would wait till mid-Winter when it's freezing, just to test his commitment. But today he told me he just couldn't wait that long. Last Sunday he dived in the local swimming pool during a baptismal service, to get it done. Cool. Go Gijs, go!

Thanks, Marc. I am glad I'm finally baptized, I felt God told me to do so half a year ago. I was lucky, or blessed, to be in the right place in the right time.

I also found it cool to have a church meeting in a swimming pool. Too bad I forgot my swimming suit, though.
