More than 200 students at an Alabama college were baptized in one night this week after a campus worship program that was reportedly attended by hundreds.

The baptisms took place Tuesday night in a lake at Auburn's Red Barn venue, which is located about half a mile from Auburn University's Neville Arena, the site of a "Unite Auburn" worship event that drew a massive crowd.

The "Unite Auburn" event featured performances by Christian worship band Passion and saw speakers such as Jennie Allen, a Christian author, and Rev. Jonathan Pokluda, lead pastor of Harris Creek Baptist Church in Waco, Texas.

Following the event, one individual reportedly wanted to be baptized, but a tub was not available for use. Seeking a solution, students began gathering at the lake.

Auburn Tigers head football coach Hugh Freeze also attended the event and "got in the water to help," according to Montgomery-based WSFA.

In one clip taken by Auburn senior Michael Floyd, Freeze was shown assisting in the baptism of one of the school's football players.

"This was a great moment of Auburn being Auburn! Thousands gathered to unapologetically seek Jesus, and hundreds took their next step," Floyd told Fox News Digital of the event.
