Occurred on January 7, 2018 / Prichard, West Virginia, USA
Info from Licensor: "One of our members felt led to be baptized on one of the coldest days this year in West Virginia. It was 8 degrees out, the pastor asked her multiple times if she wanted to do it inside at another church and she said, 'if Jesus can be baptized in the river, the creek is good enough for me.' A few of the men in the church went to work making this happen for her. The cut for over 45 min and through 10 inches of ice in some areas. There were no health concerns afterward."
