Went to see a someone baptized, and missed it. We get there in plenty of time to get seated for the service. While reading the screens on the front, I find out there is classes for the kids. I go looking for it and after walking around looking lost and confused, I finally stopped someone and asked where my sons would be and after three people this guy takes my name and my sons name. Then proceeds to take me to a machine to sign him in, I get a name tag for my son and a number for me to pick him up with. Then he takes me to a big room that looks like a inside play ground with kids running around everywhere. No one asked anything, other then my sons name, if he has allergies or any other issues, he has autism.
Then I proceed back to my seat. Still got plenty of smiles, nothing more.
We sit through loud music all with light shows (more like a concert than worship) and then a mediocre service. Assuming the baptism would be at the end of the service. Then we hear this is the end of the service, you are dismissed. We went out the doors and went to the car, I came back in the door on the other side and walked to get my son. Finally found him and we left. Nothing was ever said anything about a baptism, so I felt like a stupid fool who went to the wrong church.
Asked my son how hi class as, he said he had fun. When I asked what he had learned, he said he just played, they had no lessons.
When I get home, I find on Facebook a video of the person we went to see baptized getting baptized at the church were at! Nothing was ever said about a baptism at any point. When I watch the video, it was a kiddie pool in between the two sets of doors that I had walked in and out of, in the hallway. It was not even a service, people stood and watch them sit I a kiddie pool and lay down and back up.
And since I did not notice were it was at, the person I took to watch her grandson get baptized is upset with me for letting her miss it!
