Well, this was truly my intention but I went to the first meeting for the sacraments and did not feel it at all and decided that it was not for me, or at least for the time being ... I kind of felt bad for the priest but I need to feel at peace with whatever decision I make
When I think about, being totally honest, I belief that I am already baptized in the name of the Father, of the Son and the holy spirit.
What is your take?

Baptism, for an adult, is an outward declaration of faith in Jesus Christ, to the world.
Also "solidifying" one's faith to oneself.
What do you mean you " Believe" you are baptised?
