Like Easter in December
As we continued our Advent celebration on Sunday, the Holy Spirit showed up in a huge way. Throughout the entire day, the mood at Mars Hill Downtown was described as electric. The Holy Spirit moved tangibly and Jesus’ name was praised and honored. We had the privilege of baptizing 19 people, of which 10 were spontaneous, and many had just begun following Jesus! This video is a glimpse into those moments. We witnessed God’s grace, and as a community we tasted a little bit of what God promises in Revelation 21:3-4, "that He will wipe away every tear from their eyes."Along with the Downtown campus, Albuquerque baptized 26 people: At Bellevue, they baptized 23: Olympia baptized 17, and another seven were baptized at the U-District campus:
And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?" And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.Acts 8:36-38
