The Baptism of The Lord

Today we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus.  At Jesus’ birth, Mary showed Jesus to the world as her son. At Jesus’ baptism, God the Father showed Jesus to the world as His Son, the Son of God.

When Jesus was baptized, the sky opened up, and the Holy Spirit appeared like a dove and God the Father stated, “This is my Beloved Son” Matthew 3:16-17.

At our own baptism, we claimed God as our father and He claimed us as beloved children. This is a good time to talk about your child’s baptism with him/her. Discuss your feelings of their joining the family of God. Show them pictures. You may even want to celebrate their “birthday” into the family of God each year on their baptism day!

This Week’s RCIA Topic

The RCIA topic for Monday, January 11 is The New Testament. All adults of the parish are invited to attend any week of RCIA to learn more about our faith. RCIA meets in the Parish Office Narthex from 7-9 PM.
