KV was baptized as an infant right away (well not so much as I had to go through the single Moms class, yes we knew we had to drink from the “other” faucet) due to his severe physical disability/health not expected to live more than a few months a year topps. (31 blessed and amazing grace years later, Glory be to God, he does save wretches like me).
But when we went Baptist Pastor Charlie (RIP) didn't want to use the Church dipping pool for fear KV would thrash and hit the mic and electrocute all.
So Pastor/plus wife, KV and Me put on swimsuits and went to our Local Spa store (RIP JIM) owner and did a jacuzzi baptism.
He hit an area that had a substantial Scandinavian background, and their great grandparents and back a couple more generations had spent a good hundred years as the "cutting edge" on the frontier ~ and were not organized into any sort of church like Europeans and English people.
Best I can tell they still maintained a number of older Sa'ami religious traditions ~ but there they were, and the minister converted a few people and they built a small chapel. Then the converted more and more people and built a larger chapel, and then an even larger one, and in the end had a congregation of several hundred families, all English speakers, and a Dunkard (German Baptist) church.
He was quite progressive and started a Sunday School program for the Summer ~ so on Sunday, after church, all the young people would gather for supplemental lessons and they would cook enormous pots of crawdads.
This was all at Uniontown Indiana.
They had a graveyard there ~ it's also the one where Jewish people in the area were buried ~ since Scandinavian traditions didn't segregate the Jews as anything unusual.
Anyway, Dunkards dip you three times ~ for the Father, for the Son and for the Holy Ghost.
That church finally withered away and most of the congregation moved into a couple of DOC churches in the vicinity.
There are other Dunkard churches in America, but that was the only non-German non-German language Dunkard church that anyone knows about from that period of time.
