Baptism
Baptism - what is real? I ask this question because I am in the process of submitting my application for candidacy and there are two things holding me up. The first ... The second is my baptism. My parents had us all baptized twice - in order not to cause a family 'fuss.' We were each baptized at St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church and then in a Lutheran CHurch where they desired us to be baptized. So what's the problem? The problem is that the Church recognizes one baptism and I interpret this as the 'first' baptism. Problem with that is that we don't have the specific date for this written in our baby books. I know I was baptized in March of 1974, but specifically I don't know anything else. Mom says just to sue the Lutheran date, but is that being deceptive, knowing that my first, my 'real' baptism is at the Serbian church? How can I be decpetive on the applicaiton for the rest of my life. PT say that it is not a big deal. What to do....
