Daniel Davis was baptized Feb. 11 by Tony Brandon at the John Day (Ore.) Church.
"I wanted to be baptized because I heard of baptism, wondered what it was, and looked it up, and asked my parents about it," Davis explains. "I thought about what they said, and I decided I wanted to be baptized. I took lessons for baptism and prepared myself."
Davis continues, "[On] Aug. 4, 2011, I was in an accident when I was hit on my bike. I had minor bruises, and my back had pain for a while, but it stopped after a month. I knew it wasn't luck that helped me through my accident; it was God. I was baptized Feb. 11, 2012. I enjoyed the time, and my parents were happy with me deciding to be baptized."
The John Day Church members are happy to welcome this young man to their membership.
