Two Backstreet Boys, Howie Dorough and Brian Littrell, along with wife Leighanne Littrell, were baptized in the River Jordan in Israel.  The trio took a holy dip in the muddy waters of the River Jordan.  It was an emotionally charged experience as this was the spot where Jesus himself took the baptismal plunge.

Brian Littrell has been known as a devout Christian.  He is currently embarking on the In a World Like This Tour with the boy band and as they travel he has been documenting his tourist activities around religious hotspots on Instagram.com.
