January 12 – Baptism of Our Lord
Today’s festival rejoices in God’s blessings. We recall and celebrate our adoption as God’s children, the gift of the Holy Spirit, and the promised company of almighty God when we “pass through the waters . . . the rivers . . . fire.” On this day the heavens open again for this assembly, and we receive the gift of God’s Beloved, Jesus, in bread and wine.
Isaiah 43:1-7 + Luke 3:15-17, 21-22

Generosity rises from the conviction that God has provided, and that we can participate in God’s work with our offerings. Give today.
