Good News: Decatur County Sheriff Oversees Dozens of Inmate Baptisms

The Decatur County Sheriff in Greensburg, IN, seems to be doing the Lord’s work, publicly rejoicing that dozens of inmates have given a profession of faith andwere baptized, writing on their Facebook wall on December 29, 2022.

Nearly 40 men and women after a personal, public profession of Jesus Christ in their lives. Over the past four years, nearly 300 men and women have given their life to Jesus Christ while incarcerated at the Decatur County Detention Center. All glory to GOD!

This echoes previous statements made in July, where they likewise wrote:

The Decatur County Sheriff’s Office conducted baptisms for 36 inmates inside of the Detention Center. These inmates professed a personal relationship with Jesus Christ followed by a water baptism. What a glorious day for Heaven and each of these men and women.

While it is easy to get jaded and skeptical about this sort of thing, and the possible motives they may have for getting baptized or to what degree their profession of faith is legitimate rather than a ploy, we ought to instead be hopeful and pray that the seed would fall in good soil.
