While I think it's a great thing that you want to be baptized it does sound like it would be a little bit difficult for you to do so at the moment. Christian Baptism is, generally, supposed to be done as soon as possible following your public commitment to Jesus Christ -- which usually, but not always occurs in a church setting. Baptist churches are often very good about baptizing people promptly (goes with the name, doesn't it?) but sometimes other Christian churches don't have baptismal pools in their buildings, and they may have to make other arrangements.
I live next to the ocean, and frequently, baptisms are performed at the beach in the surf here, in fact, my son and a number of his church's other new Christians were baptized by at the beach, though it took them almost 2 years to get around to it! Other churches may use a swimming pool to perform baptisms in, if they have access to one through a community pool, if they will allow it, or in a church member's own family swimming pool. The point is, while almost any body of water that is large enough will do, sometimes, it may take awhile to find a church that is actively baptizing, and they still may need to put you on a waiting list and contact you when they are getting.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
