Here we have a film from an old newsreel series called "Queeriosities" this one covers the story of hundreds of negros being Baptized in the Mississippi River in St. Louis. Being a silent film we added a vintage gospel/blues cut From Blind Willie Johnson. Here is a link to the track Blind Willie Johnson -- "Praise God I'm Satisfied" http://www.publicdomain2ten.com/category/gospel/

@comeoneover01 Yes, looks like many were. They were 'feeling' it, the Power of Almighty God. Praise God.
Acts 18:8
Crispus, the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his household, and many of the Corinthians when they heard were believing and being baptized.
