The feast of the Baptism of the Lord invites us to look at our own baptism in the Lord. Jesus, through his baptism in the river Jordan, begins his mission.

Today we celebrate the feast of the Baptism of the Lord and, with it, conclude the Christmas season.

Today we are celebrating the feast of the Baptism of our Lord. A feast that upholds the sacrament of Baptism in our own life and invites us to participate in Jesus’ own Baptism.
