Before their game against the Carolina Panthers this week, members of the Philadelphia Eagles gathered around their hotel’s pool, and prayed together as wide receiver Marcus Johnson was baptized.
Along with a picture, he tweeted, “First time being Baptized! Corporate Worship is a beautiful thing!! Cleansed & Reborn in JESUS name!!??? #WholeHeartedly”

Baptisms and Bible studies have become commonplace among the team.
Last year, tight end Trey Burton baptized five of his teammates in the team’s recovery pool at the practice facility.
