A large crowd gathered on Gorleston beach at 9.45am on Sunday 16th February to baptise Amber in the North Sea.

It was rather breezy with the sea temperature warmer than the air temperature, but Amber, Derek and Gary all wore wetsuits. 

The confessions of faith took place on the beach before heading into the sea to await a wave followed by a quick exit to dry off. 

This was followed by hot refreshments and cake before a service back at the school in which Amber gave her testimony of her journey of faith to this point. She was presented with a journalling bible from the church and Gary prayed for her.

The following week Amber spoke to us and showed us some photos of her trip to Lesotho which is part of her second year with Rock UK.
