                                                           The Baptism of the Lord January 9, 2022
                                                          BAPTISMAL DEATH AND RESURRECTION
                                                        As we celebrate the Baptism of the Lord, we also honor
                                                   our own baptism as our initiation into the Christian life and
                                                   community. In the Gospel, the baptism of Jesus, with his
                                                   immersion and then emergence from the water, points to his
                                                   later submission to God at his death, and his emergence from
                                                   the grave at his resurrection. This pattern of death and resur-
                                                   rection is our path too, as followers of Jesus. Throughout
                                                   life, often in small ways, we learn to surrender our limited
                                                   and self-centered agendas. This surrender often feels like
                                                   death. The sacrament of Baptism ritually enacts this pattern
                                                   to remind us of Jesus’ death and resurrection, so that we too
                                                   might embrace the deaths and resurrections of our own lives.
                                                   As Jesus emerged from the water, he encountered his Father
                                                   and the Holy Spirit. Like Jesus, we can know we are God’s
