Jacob "went public" on a Wednesday night at Crew, our church's Wednesday youth group thing. He was the first person to do it on a Wednesday. He asked his small group leader, Andros, to baptize him, and it was his first time to baptize anyone.
First, they video Jacob telling what led him to decide he wanted to do this.

Behind the scences: We were waiting for the time during the service for Jacob to go out there.

Talking to Josh
I think this is actually after, they look wet
Parker telling Jacob and me what to do when we went out
Hallie had told Mav that he was going to a party and Mav could not understand why there wasn't any cake...
Parker telling the crowd that Jacob was about to go public.
Jacob's second mom, Kristi. She's Michael's mom (that's Michael's sister Nikki). We met her when they were in Kindergarten.
Jacob's friend Hunter.
Jackson, Alex, Michael, Jacob, Beau, Eli, Hunter, Daniel. I do not know what they are doing with their hands. I love this group. It's missing a couple usual suspects (Teagan and Julian). Alex and Beau literally left football practice early to come. We've known most of this group since Kindergarten.
Oh these ladies are my life support group. Love them. Kristi, Kim, Sharon, me. Kim and Sharon pulled their kids (Beau and Alex) from football practice early to come.
