Mel Chancey

And that's when I told Cody the year before, at our military event the year before, Cody was asking me.

And then he came up to me later and he goes, not sure that I'm going to do it this year.

And I said, Cody, that's something that you have to feel here.

I said, you already have your relationship with the Lord?

He goes, yes, I do.

And I said, okay, that's what matters.

Your outward thing is just, you got this.

When you're ready, you'll know the timing.

Right on.

Came up to me that first day we were there.

And, you know, that night we got there in the town and told me that.

And he's like, let's do it tomorrow.

We want to do it at noon.

I said, okay.

So I had all them hours of thinking of that water.

Like I said, I was more nervous about the water than doing it, but that was my first one.

And then as you can imagine, after seeing that and everybody in that getting out on video, my DMs blew up.

Yeah, and I tell everybody, I'm like, listen, if you have a pastor that you're close with, give him the honor.

You know what I mean?

I don't want to go baptize anybody just because they say, oh, Mel Chancey baptized us.
