562 People Baptized at NewSpring Today

September 8, 2007 in Uncategorized with 12 Comments

It was an amazing day today at NewSpring. We had an all-church baptism celebration out in the parking lot. Perry invited folks to come tailgate prior to the celebration. The parking lots were full and we had cars parked out in the grass. People went all out with the tailgating. It looked like a Clemson football game with RVs, tents, grills and TVs set up to catch updates on today’s games.

We set up three pools in the parking lot and baptized six people at a time. By the time we were finished, 559 562 people were baptized. It was an incredible experience. I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight…especially since the new GameTime series launches tomorrow morning. Here are some pictures from today.

    So that’s why I couldn’t sleep last night!?!

    It was SOOOO amazing to watch so many people go public for Jesus!
    It is an honor to be a part of God’s moving in Anderson. Put your running shoes on everyone… God’s running fast and we have to keep up with His plans that He has given to Perry!

    That reminds me of the parking lots outside of Texas Stadium.
