Having said that... I believe Baptism is the first thing a new believer does - in bold profession of his newfound faith. The concept of taking classes or delaying baptism until a certain date, or an annual "Baptismal", is foreign to scripture.

I agree. Although our churches in Kenya are forced to have baptisms only once or twice a year because they have to rent a swimming pool and it's very expensive. I would love to be able to get them a concrete baptistry. They could go to a river, but they are infested and very dangerous.
