Take My Breath Away

John FJeff already posted this but I had to put it on here as well and no, nothing is wrong with the color, we are purple. One of my friends and a fellow Lifepointer John Fialo wanted to get baptized this week before he left for Iraq. What better place than the ocean right? One problem, January. The water was 52 degrees and the outside temperature was 46 degrees. I later read that it would have taken a whole hour to kill us in 50 degree water so we were fine.

All kidding and freezing aside, this was a highlight for me. This guy wanted the world to know that he is playing for the home team and he loves the coach with all he has.

I wish they would have gotten a picture of everyone on the shore, they looked like Eskimos with bomber jackets and hoodies.

    How Awesome!!! I think our goal should be to get Jeff & Daryl in the ocean baptizing people on a weekly, or even daily basis. How cool!!! God Rocks!!!
