How many?
Yes, at the time I just thought the pastor was being spiritual and helping us understand the Bible. I don't really begrudge it too much. He was kind of between a rock and a hard place, I suppose, my husband asking to be baptized and all. I wasn't asking to be baptized because I had already been baptized in the titles. The pastor more or less told me I was going to be rebaptized when my husband was baptized. He just said "We may as well baptize you too." I had no idea why or what he was talking about, I just went with the flow.

So, anyway, there was pressure on us to get married and we kind of looked at each other and shrugged and got married. No relatives were present. I do wish it had been done differently but I never really regretted it either.

We've been married 26 years. We're gettin' old as the hills.
