Any advise would be appreciated . . .
Yeah, that's what you're going to get, any advice of all kinds, most of it useless from a Biblical point of view. The Free Republic forum does have a broad spectrum from "authorities" to mere suggesters, but this is not the place to find the advice you need. Take time to study for yourself what the Bible has to say about it.
But here is a link to the particular baptismal rite you seem to be inquiring about:
VI. BAPTISM OF DISCIPLES OR WATER BAPTISM
This discusses the sixth of seven kinds of baptism treated by the Bible (actually eight, if one includes ritual mikvah purification).
The article is rather lengthy, but quite precise. It is written by a Biblical scholar who has translated the entire New Testament from the Greek, so his knowledge is more than just intimacy with the Greek. If this is of sincere and great concern for you, I suggest you read the article through. In it, the author employs a precise translation that is a supplement to better understanding of the King James Version.
Briefly, water baptism of the believer is a public profession of the faith of the Christ whom he has determined to follow and obey in complete trust. It is not a means of obtaining everlasting life, which is an inner permanent changing of one's mind to trust in the Christ of the Bible, now alive in Heaven, a response prior to the external public profession of that change of mind.
It, of course, does not involve infants; and its proper and only Scripturally-authorized conduct is by complete immersion of the one being baptized, after publicly testifying of his/her full commitment.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." Galatians 5:22-23.
