Baton Rouge church baptizes nine in a stock tank

April 13, 2016

BATON ROUGE – Istrouma Baptist Church held a “One Another Sunday” event on April 10, where several hundred members gathered for food, fun and fellowship at the church’s ball-fields then some of the staff pastors baptized nine new members in a stock tank.

Senior Pastor Jeff Ginn started the baptisms with Whitney Dicus who was surprised at the water temperature when she stepped into it.

If your church has a baptism or salvation story – especially related to the recent floods that have hit the state – send them to us at philip@baptistmessage.com.
