Therefore we have been buried with him by baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.

Romans 6:4 NRSV

Let’s Walk In The Light

Sisters and brothers in Christ Jesus our Lord, may grace and peace from God Almighty, be upon us today and always, Amen.
Friends, our baptismal vows call us to compassion and mercy on behalf of those in need.

We offer our prayers for the church and the world. Let us remember to mention, at the throne of grace and mercy, those who are not well in hospitals and in homes. Some do not even have the means to access health care. Let’s strive to help with compassion.

Come let’s Pray:

Dear Lord God, you revealed your Son in the waters of the Jordan, and anointed him with the power of the Holy Spirit to proclaim good news to all people.

Sanctify us by the same Spirit, that we may proclaim the healing power of the gospel by acts of love in your name. Amen & Amen.
