The Baptism of the Lord marks the last day of the Christmas season. It is a very powerful reminder that baptism is both a beginning and a mission. This Christian mission we have received when we were baptized – that we are priests, called to be holy; prophets, called to be proclaimers; and kings, called to be servant-leaders.

The baptism of Jesus was another “epiphany,” or divine manifestation that He was the one sent by God that He has come “to serve and not to be served.” (Mt 20:28) The model of our baptism is none other than Jesus the Lord. Though Jesus did not need baptism to remove sins, since He was sinless, nor to establish a relationship with God, since He is one with Him from eternity, Jesus went through the humble gesture of baptism like the rest of the people around John the Baptist. Why? The answer is simple: to identify himself as God’s Son so that His mission could begin.

In Baptism, we are also identified as children of the Father and brothers and sisters of Jesus and filled with God’s Spirit. In baptism, like Jesus, we have been entrusted a relationship with God and a task to perform for the world that awaits our love.

Let us always remind one another of our Christian identity and dignity as beloved sons and daughters of our most loving and compassionate God. Let us continue to live fully our baptism patterned to the very baptism of our Lord and brother, Jesus Christ.

Christmas Blessings, Fr. Vincent
