Cannonball Express



This makes me think back when my father baptized me in 1978. I was 8 years old and I was so nervous. I thought I would get slain by the Holy Spirit and drown.

We lived in a little town of Warren, Arkansas......a place where the KKK continued to exercise their hateful marches and where some of my friends in the "black" area of town lived right behind our home and church. Scary flashbacks are being evoked....I think I will blog more about those days soon.

OH WELL......the video clip has been taken off.....it had a pastor doing a baptism and he finishes one kid and is waiting on the next kid...when all of the sudden that kid jumps into the baptistery doing a cannonball. It drenches the pastor.

After several seconds of MAJOR laughing from the congregation, the pastor says, "After 25 years in the ministry, I've never seen anything like this....(crowd laughs)... and I guarantee you, I never will again"

I'm sorry it was taken off - a real funny church clip is always good to have
