I caught you a delicious bass...

Napoleon Dynamite. Just go see it already.

Speaking of bass and waterways... Our church, The Grove had its first ever lake baptism at Lake Wedington this morning. It was a great time of fellowship and celebration. The best part is hearing all of the life change stories - each person shared their testimony before they were baptized. I also really like the idea of baptisms in a lake as opposed to a baptismal in a church, because it seems so much like what the early church did. We first hung out, ate Krispy Kreme

This is one of those events that makes it really feel like we are a church. The body together celebrating what God has done in our midst. Very cool.
donuts and OJ. Then at around 10:00, we gathered everyone up, the baptizees shared their testimonies and were baptized. Then everyone just hung out, played in the water, tossed frisbees and footballs and ate picnic lunches.
