Re: How/when/where were you baptized?
'Round December of '89 is where I was baptized in the spirit and sometime before that sometime I was baptized in Jesus name. I remembered when I accepted Jesus in my life and I made the changes, it was a great time. So '88-'89, Knoxville, Tn. dead of winter in a heated tank that the heater was busted in so the water was about 45 degrees and this was indoors.

Re: How/when/where were you baptized?
Sept. 5, 2004, at Abundant Life UPC, baptized by Bro. Roy Raposo. I didn't know if my parents would allow me to get baptized in JESUS' name, because I had been previously baptized in the Assemblies of GOD church, the summer of 2003. I wore two sets of clothes, went into the meetinghouse without my parent's knowing what I was going to do, took one set of clothes off to keep them dry, got baptized, and put back on my dry clothes. 
-Bro. Alex

Re: How/when/where were you baptized?
Got baptized in the name of the Father Son & Holy Ghost in Pensacola Florida by pastor BW Adams in Jan 1971 at The Pentecostal Church of Jesus Christ.
It was in the first week of revival meeting that went every night for two months.
The Evangelist was Joe Duke.

Re: How/when/where were you baptized?
I've been baptized 3 times.
The first time was when I was 12. I'd grown up in a Reformed Church of America and had not been baptized as a baby (they perform infant baptism, sprinkling). I'd had an experience with God and *demanded* to be baptized. My mom conceded and all 4 of us were baptized.
We started going to an Assembly of God church shortly after that. I was baptized in the Holy Ghost and baptized by immersion (titles..maybe? I don't remember) just before I turned 14.
When I was 18, I worked with a woman who attended an UPC church. She and I were talking one night while she was driving me home from a girl's night out and ended up stopped in the parking lot of her church discussing the finer points of baptism. Do not ask me how we got on that subject. lol She ended up calling her pastor to meet us at the church and talk to me. He agreed, this was 9 or 10 pm. We talked for quite awhile before I ran out of objections. I was baptized that night in Jesus' name.

Re: How/when/where were you baptized?
And ok....I think everyone in this thread was baptized before I was even born. Y'all are good for making a girl feel young. 
Wait. Except for SeptTeen.

Re: How/when/where were you baptized?
I was baptized in Jesus' name in 1955.
That's before lots of y'all were born.
I'm old.
That makes me an elder.
And if I'm an elder, where is my respect.
Sometimes I feel like Brother Rodney Dangerfield, I get no respect.
