Christ I'm getting Baptised this Sunday

Guess what... well you already know from the title of the thread...
I'm getting Baptised on Sunday....
And I'm a bit nervous, mainly excited... but yeah...
Anyone else just been baptised?
Man.... I'm really looking forward to it but a little nervous....

I really love Jesus and want to show the world (well my church at least!!) this... I have been really trying to develop my relationship with Jesus over the past 3 months and it is wonderful... I love Him so much!!!

That's great! There's nothing to be nervous about. It was about 7 years ago that I was baptised (you're talking about the full immersion under water thing aren't you?)


My mum had a hard time understanding what it was all about and refused to come. I have been brought up in the Anglican church and unfortunately she is very religious.
