Fate

My flight from Phoenix to Burbank was cancelled as I was waiting for the plane when I was returning from a visit with my parents in Tucson. I was sitting next to a woman who travels a lot for business. She took me with her to the Customer Service counter for the airline so we could get a seat on the next flight out. We had a 4 hour wait ahead of us.

She mentioned to me that she had become a Christian after being Catholic. I told her I had recently become Christian after being Jewish. We had so much to talk about after that and I had so many questions, especially about her experience being baptized as a Christian because I was thinking about doing that. She invited me to come to her church.

I woke up pretty sick, but met her and her family at the Shepherd of the Hills Church in Porter Ranch anyway. It’s a non-denominational church with a lot of members. They have a big tank of water for baptisms on the side of the stage. I had never seen that before. During the service I was baptized. It was a lot different than my Bat Mitzvah.

Blessings!
