Deep involvement in baptism (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

immersion

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'deep involvement' is the first definition.
'immersion' can be an answer for 'involvement' (thesaurus). I'm unsure of the 'deep' bit.

'baptism' is the second definition.
(I know that immersion is a type of baptism)

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for immersion that I've seen before include "dip" , "Deep absorption (in a subject)" , "Deep absorption; baptism" , "Baptism; deep involvement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
