Shawna Crandell Mormon Baptism

I know this is a sacred moment, and it's controversial to post, but as a current investigator to the church, it help a lot seeing what a real baptism looks like not through the propaganda well-produced videos the church puts out

If you know someone's been baptized the morning I need prayer I'm trying to get off drugs and it's been a difficult things for me it's okay cuz you need something but it is okay so please send a prayer up thank you

I am being baptized with the LDS church this Saturday as a new start to life to leave the old me behind, But sometimes missionaries or members of a ward really care about the person. Like the missionaries who decided to contact me, they knew and still know my worldview of nothing can be proven. But when the times have gotten hard, they have offered me a way to escape the world of pain and suffering in church. They invited me, a skeptic into their church to help me get the world off of my mind. NOT ALL MORMONS ARE FUCKING CULTEST! Some give up on converting the people and offering them help, and a way to escape the pain in the earth even if for only 2 hours on a Sunday.

Why did I have the urge to clap, yet all the spectators remained silent?

My breath stopped for a minute there. Amazing stuff.

I can see the way this woman feels. Because I have felt that way too. My heart being filled with great peace, joy, and excitement for the journey i'm about to embark on. The journey of discipleship to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Her new life, being a friend to everyone who she sees. being a light in the community, learning to trust God, receiving callings and fulfilling them with great joy and excitement!! This Church is truly the work of the one who sits on high. From where I sit, being a member of the church since i was 8, It is beautiful to say the least. I left the church when i was 13 and rejoined when i was 18 and now i'm 23, and I have never seen anything cult-like about it... People who actually experience the church know that. There are problems in the church, but spooky cult feelings are not one of them... more like, common school-type bullying, and judgmental people... But the GOOD of the church far outweighs the BAD!!!! :) anyways... Baptism is beautiful, and the Church is true!! <3

For those who say baptism should be done in the name of Jesus Christ only, read Matthew 28:19. Thanks.

Acts 2:37-38 "Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."

Good for you, Destiny I am so proud of you for not just making a commitment to a higher calling but honoring it with the follow through anybody could say that they’re going to do something but what we’re all judged by and defined by is our actions and our deeds it’s Eddie by the way

[cameronwhatidoinsparetime]

This took me back to when I got baptized 1yr ago

[alissagrettenberger]

This seems so “unjoyus” (I couldn’t think of a better word). I’m a Baptist and when I was baptized it was celebrated and people clapped and cheered and it was a joyous occasion because it is and outward expression of my inward beliefs. This just seems so cold and lifeless

[VYj]

They were harassing me several times about my Baptism. There is something here that is not quite right about the Mormons. Why can't you just look for another individual that they can baptize and can get ten percent off their salary ? ?

[AngryRantsAndStuff]

Aw, they don't do it in a river like the old days?

[Blackwolf_Lira]

I thought you weren't allowed to even take pictures

[peterojas]

Why was this baptism not done at a temple instead of a ward?

[TheWordprophet]

Why did this man say that he was baptizing her in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost...and then not do so?

[saffronhammer]

Baptisms in the Bible required very little preparation and were not done in secret. In Acts 8 we are told of how after one biblical passage is explained he was ready for baptism. "36. As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, “Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized?” [37] [c] 38 And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him. "

[boshgezenyan]

Lucky to have witnessed Mormon baptism in person ( thx to d Elders).
I should've agreed to be baptised, but was unsure.. been told I've been baptised back in Kuwait ( no pictures or any trace of it) 👎🏻

I find this interesting, my daughter was recently baptized in the Mormon church.  I asked to videorecord the event so my wife, in Colorado taking care of her dying father, could at some point view her daughters event.  I was told no by 3 elders andsome guy who travels with them.  Then I go on youtube and see 15, 900 videos not only taken but uploaded onto the internet.  Anger hardly touches the way I feel right now.  To say I feel they dishonored my wife would  be an understatement.  But they got another convert, which is all they seem interested in.  We were very supportive of our daughters move toward the faith.  Now having second thoughts and wishing I had asked more questions and challenged a few things.  In the past few months, I've heard the word conversion more than glitches in Obamacare.  hmmm
