Jacuzzis For Jesus!

Here in Peru, we've held baptisms in the Pacific Ocean, in the Amazon River, in a men's maximum security prison, & in an outdoor swimming pool. We've baptized over 100 people in Peru in the last year-and-a-half.

This week we added a new locale to our list of Peruvian baptism sites, as we baptized two people in a jacuzzi!

The two folks were a couple who will be getting married later on this month, & they wanted to get baptized, together, before the wedding.

Well, it's winter now in Lima, & so an outdoor baptism in the Pacific Ocean or in an outdoor swimming pool was out of the question.

But Josue, our worship leader leader @ FRC-Lima, has a jacuzzi in his home, & so off we went! It worked out great!

As a result, we've christened Josue's jacuzzi, as well as any other jacuzzis that we'll use in the future for baptisms, with a new name:

"Jacuzzis For Jesus!"
