No, Baptism is not a prerequisite for serving. It's like speaking in tongues. Not required, but a good thing to have handy.
What Baptism In Water is, essentially, is like a public service announcement saying, "Yes, I am a Christian. Most definitely. No doubt about it." It's symbolism, like taking communion. Speaking in tongues and other gifts of the spirit are evidence of faith. So, no, Baptism is not required. Certainly not if you can't get it done.
(At least, that's how it works as far as I know. Might wanna ask God about it.)
