Baptism of the Lord Sunday, Jan. 11th


PRAYER FOR BAPTISM OF THE LORD (UM Hymnal, #253)











Father in heaven, at the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan You proclaimed Him Your beloved Son and anointed Him with the Holy Spirit. Grant that all who are baptized in His name may keep the covenant they have made, and boldly confess Him as Lord and Savior, who with You and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, One God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
