(RNS) The Sunday worship service began with a prayer thanking God for the chance to meet in a beautiful sanctuary.
Then the pastor prayed that the service would encourage members’ hearts and provoke their imaginations — and that “if we get wet, let us have fun.”
“If we fall in, we will remember our baptism this morning,” said the Rev. Jes Kast.
With that, the people of Faith United Church of Christ said “amen” and launched their boats into the reservoir at Bald Eagle State Park.
