They have to have a ready supply of white t-shirts.
Actually, I used to buy a new pack of white T-shirts for each assembly/convention for possible use in the baptism. Most times I would take them all home afterwards and use them myself. (I always got my size - 2X) Every once in a while one of the baptism candidates would need one for one reason or another. One DC, the men's dressing room had a sewage overflow and the t-shirts came in handy. (It happen while they were getting baptized.) I didn't bring any home that time.

The basic qualification, other than being an elder, is that you not drop the baptismal candidates as you dunk them. (like I did one time).

It was my great contribution for the cause!

The brother I worked under was big on this. His standard was 'no splashing.' (And no touching of breasts, either! Hand placement was important. If you fell short, he wouldn't use you in the pool anymore. Apparently, I was good. As Clint Eastwood would say, 'I'm the best there is.' [Firefox])

I baptized a few in my day, I baptized my daughter.
Now since Iam a Apostate, how does that work.
What if I went to all I baptized and told them, look
at me now ( so much for appointment by Holy spirit).
Your baptism is nullified, you need a redue. LOL

Your relative is either the Assembly Overseer, his assistant, DO/CO or you are a pioneer succubus that likes to eat s*it out of the asses of the aforementioned people.

Again I need to repeat to you, an apostate baptized a servant of Jehovah , he baptized a sincere individual that wanted to serve God. May Jehovah have mercy upon me.
Seems like the Holy Spirit should've prevented that. But, HS also supposedly appointed the Elder, so why not the apostate in the pool, too. Oh well....
