For by water and the Spirit you have made us a new people in Jesus Christ our Lord, to show forth your glory in all the world. Sustain us, O Lord, in your Holy Spirit. Give us inquiring and discerning hearts, the courage to will and to persevere, spirits to know and to love you, and the gift of joy and wonder in all your works. Amen.
From the Font, For the World
In these complex and challenging times, it is important for us to keep our eyes, ears, and hearts open for moments of Christian hope. I can think of nothing more hopeful than the baptism of a new member of the Body of Christ, a person being claimed by God at the font and empowered for ministry and service to the world. May we continue to be a congregation that sends hope into God’s world every day.
-The Rev. Kelly Moughty
