The waters of the Jordan
revealed Jesus as the Son of God every bit as much as did the visit of the
Magi. The festival of the Baptism of Our
Lord and the festival of the Epiphany are linked and both show the same thing
in two different ways. Jesus was
symbolically revealed to the nations through the Magi. Jesus was also revealed to his own people in
his baptism by John and the descent of the Spirit. This revelation would grow throughout his
entire life, up to the Resurrection and beyond.
Welcome!
Everyone is
invited to stay for fellowship after the service.
We pray today for all
the sick in our congregation, especially Colin & Elfriede Hayes, Else
Kalmbach and her son, Nancy Mayberry, Hilda Moritz, George & Astrid Simonis,
Ed Stanat, Helga Ungar and John Weninger.
May God grant all of them His healing grace in Jesus Christ. Amen.
Our deepest
sympathies go out to the Mahler and Gitta families. Betty Mahler passed away on December 31. Even in their sorrow, may they know the
comfort of the Lord's Resurrection and the church's prayers.
