Jan 9 – The Baptism of Our Lord

The Divine Service for the Baptism of Our Lord (January 9, 2022)

“An Open Heaven for You” – Luke 3:15-22

The season of Epiphany begins on January 6 when the Church observes the coming of the Magi to worship baby Jesus. This service will incorporate that event along with the main focus on the Baptism of Jesus. Jesus is the gift of the Father to fallen humanity that we would worship Him who is not only our King, but our substitute. In baptismal water, Jesus has no sin to remove, but He is anointed to be our sin-bearer. Just as Jesus saw heaven open, so it is in our baptism that heaven is opened to those who now bear the name of Jesus. May we never lose our faith in the one with whom the Father is well pleased!
