The Baptism of the Lord January 10, 2016 MANIFESTING THE SPIRIT The Christmas season closes this Sunday with the Baptism of the Lord. This feast is a sister to last week’s feast of the Epiphany. Each of them celebrates an “epiphany,” or a manifestation of the Spirit of God in Jesus—first in his birth, and now at his baptism. The divine Spirit is manifested in all of the scriptures for this feast. Psalm 104 highlights the Spirit of God creating and renewing the earth, while the reading from Isaiah describes God restoring Israel. In Luke’s account of the baptism of the Lord the Holy Spirit descends upon Jesus. And the letter to Titus reminds us that the Holy Spirit was “richly poured out” on us also, through the “bath of rebirth” (Titus 3:5, 6). Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Share that cheerful greeting with some folks today. They may wonder if you have had any Elvis sightings lately, attended Star Trek conventions, or were Cleopatra in a previous lifetime. Despite the skep- tics, today is solidly within the Christmas season. In fact, in some strands of the Christian tradition it represents the Week of January 10-17 clearest manifestation of the mystery of the Incarnation. Sunday, January 10 On Christmas Day, for example, the Gospel reading is The Baptism of the Lord the Prologue of John’s Gospel, which reveals the glory of Coffee & Doughnuts after 7:30, 9:15 & 11:00 am Masses (Crespi) Christ shining through our humanity precisely in his 10:00-12:00 PM Faith Formation Class (MAC) baptism. 2:00 PM-4:00PM Confirmation Parents, Sponsors, & At any rate, this is an ancient feast, celebrated first in Teens Meeting (MAC) Egypt sixteen centuries ago. More than most other ancient people, the Egyptians understood the life‑giving Monday, January 11 properties of water. On this day, they drew water from 7:30-8:30 AM Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament (BSC) the Nile, so central in the history of their people, and 11:30 AM Legion of Mary (Crespi) reserved it in honor. Many other places copied the 2:00-11:00 PM Women’s I-Help (Crespi) custom, so that St. John Chrysostom wrote of people in Antioch gathering at midnight to collect flowing water Tuesday, January 12 into vessels they brought from home since “today there is 7:30-8:30 AM Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament (BSC) a blessing on the water.” At home for dinner tonight, decorate the table with beautiful bowls of water and white candles, toast one another with goblets of sparkling Wednesday, January 13 water, and light a Christmas candle in the window one 10:30-11:30 AM Bible Study (MAC) last time. —Rev.
