i just want to share my water baptism experience.I got baptized at Christ Embassy church . I remember how excited we were when told to enrol in the baptismal class. The class would last for 2 weeks before the baptism. After the class, we were told to come to church early on Saturday morning with extra clothes so we could change up after the baptism. We're about 20 of us,so on the D-day, we assembled in church from there, we drove down to the hotel where the baptism would take place. First thing I observed as we got to the poolside was shocking! Empty beer bottles and hundreds of smoked cigarettes littered every where, female undies littered the pool itself. Lawd hv mercy. Was the hotel not aware that a church was coming to use the pool for a spiritual exercise? I and my friends funny glances,even Our pastor was visibly ashamed of the place so in a bid to retain some dignity called the hotel bouncers and told them we're about to use the pool for baptism so they should get the cleaners. One of them just said, today's Saturday and cleaners will be late as they are all exhausted from the previous night. OK, while waiting we decided to change in our spare clothes, as the first set of people entered the toilet/bathroom, they ran out as if they saw a wild beast, the girls said the whole place was messed up, we laughed as she described the gory sight including used condoms, Jeez! Finally the most awaited cleaner came in like a VIP, muttered a lil apology and started cleaning the pool. The tiled floor was so slippery like we're walking on okro soup, kai, I vowed that I will repeat this baptism cos the first one was a total disaster, nothing spiritual about the whole thing! I prefer the baptism in river than these modern swimming pool baptism that has no impact. I don't know if the hotel knows we were coming or not, but it was not a funny experience

Mine was at the baptismal room in my church. It is like s small 3 feet pool.

only few churches have such, most churches use swimming pools or rivers. It's all about good coordination

@OP firstly, this is why you should worship in the CATHOLIC Church.
Secondly, but on a lighter note, if y'all girls had bikinis on as spare clothes, I swear that's where the girls would have seen the beast in your pastor. There ain't no way he won't be baptizing those bbs, camel shoes, backyard etc. The guy will be doing jangolover with bbs all day in the name of baptism. PASTORS smh
