1) bring in a pastor to talk about baptism, offer the opportunity, teach a baptism
class and conduct a baptism ceremony at the end of an RR meeting;
2) bring in a pastor to talk about communion and what it means, then have a communion
service at the end of the RR meeting.

All,
I know this has been talked about before. However I have
a new angle I'd like to look at.
When in Rangers I know many boys get saved. I don't see them going through with baptism. Why couldn't A Sr. Commander A. explain baptism to his boys and B. goto his pastor and say " Pastor, I've have x number of boys get saved the past year. I have x number of boys wanting to go through with baptism."
I just think baptism is something that is highly overlooked in Rangers. Saying the sinners gets you saved. Baptism is symbolic of dying with Christ and coming up a new person.
