                                             Baptism: A New Creation & Commitment

                     Last Sunday, we celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany—the manifestation of the Infant Jesus
                    to the nations through the Magi. This weekend, we solemnly celebrate the Feast of the
                    Baptism of the Lord, which is a manifestation of Jesus as the Son of God and Servant of
                    Yahweh. With this feast, our Christmas season draws to a close. The Monday following the
                    feast of the Baptism of the Lord is Monday of the first week of Ordinary Time.

In the Eastern Church, this feast is called Theophany because at the baptism of Christ, the Holy Trinity appeared
clearly to mankind for the first time: the Father's voice is heard from Heaven, the Son of God is standing
physically in the Jordan, and the Holy Spirit descends on Him in the form of a dove to empower him so he could
fulfill his saving mission. This was the crucial turning point of Christ’s life. In being baptized by John, Jesus
expressed his willingness to respond to and accept his Father’s will and His mission. It was the beginning of
Jesus’s public ministry.

This event in the life of Jesus prompts us to reflect on our own baptism and its significance for our lives. To be
baptized means to be born again. It is a new birth, birth by water and the Spirit, a birth which introduces us into a
new life. Through our baptism, we share the life of Jesus Christ, a life of intimacy with the divine family of the
Trinity. To be baptized means to be washed spotless, to be freed from iniquity. We become a new creation
washed clean in the blood of the Lamb. To be baptized means to be plunged into the paschal mystery of Christ’s
life, death, and resurrection, and to live a new life.

Today’s feast should prompt us to renew our commitment to making Jesus the very center of our lives. Let us
renew our commitment to our common baptismal vocation to be salt and light to the world and seek to do so by
leading lives of humble love and service to others. We do this so that when our time comes to stand before Jesus,
he might say, “Well done, my good and faithful servant. My Father is well pleased. Come, enter the gates of
paradise.”

As we dip our hands into the baptismal font,
let us think of our dignity, our call, and
God’s statement of our commission: you are
my beloved in whom I am well pleased. Go,
be my disciple. Then let us be just that!

May God bless us.

Actually, it is not a parish program. The synod is a                         FOOD COLLECTION

It’s part of a prayerful process that we probably know
well, but just in another way. If we’ve ever said even
one prayer, we have been guided by the Holy Spirit!
                           WHAT IS A SYNOD?
                           A synod process is a
                           sharing between people of
                           different ages,
                           backgrounds, spirituality,
                           but with a desire to be one
                           with the Spirit, and
                           together create a bright
                           future.
SOUNDS LIKE IT’S FOR CLERGY OR
THEOLOGIANS
Not at all! The process is meant to be clergy, religious
& laity learning how to be ‘missionary disciples,’
TOGETHER! It’s like Jesus taught the apostles—he
taught them and prepared them for the time when he
would no longer be there. It’s our turn to enhance our
preparation for the mission.
