Sometime in the fall of 1982, I was 18. Didn't want too, but Dad threatened not to go to my wedding if I didn't. My baptism was obviously not heartfelt. Still isnt'.
I can't remember the 'Most Important Date of My Life!' Can you?

I unfortunately can...Sept. 14, 2003. I was 18 (so OLD! people used to say, what's holding you back?? My sister was NINE and 2 years younger than me so I always had that hanging over my head...)
I managed to convince the elders to let me get baptized at one of their houses in their outdoor pool because I was too nervous to do it in front of all those people. I was a cutter then and it was hard hiding all the slash-marks on my arms while wearing a bathing suit but they managed not to show up in the photo, maybe because my mom stood fairly far away. It was NOT a happy day for me at all, I just wanted to die then. Otherwise I would have gotten dunked in Natick MA like someone else said, which circuit were you in? I went to Norwich North in CT for a long time, then to Preston (which used to be Norwich South I think).
I plan on getting baptized as a Christian soon, just trying to decide on a date.

February 7, 2005.
Wait a minute, that was when I was baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit in a Christian church.
Uhhhhh, I think it was in September when I was baptized into a spirit-directed organization but I forget which year it was.

I was 12 years old. I can't remember the date. When I saw your thread I remembered that was supposed to be the most important day of my life. I've had way more important days since then.
