Denzel Washington just got baptized and became a minister — and no, it wasn’t in preparation for a movie role.
On Saturday, Dec. 21, the Gladiator II star, 69, was baptized at the Kelly Temple Church of God in Christ, located in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City. He also was presented with a minister license, which will allow him to be ordained in the future.
During the ceremony, which was live streamed via Facebook by the First Jurisdiction Church of God in Christ Eastern New York, Denzel — who was casually dressed in a gray T-shirt and black sweat pants — opened up to the congregation about embracing his faith just days ahead of his milestone 70th birthday.
"In one week I turn 70,” he said, according to Archbishop Christopher Bryant, per Page Six. “It took a while but I'm here."
“If [God] can do this for me, there’s nothing He can’t do for you. The sky literally is the limit,” he added.

Huh.
I would think he would have done this in
H.Wood/LA
.
I never figured him to be a New Yawker.
