*Call to Worship
Susan Reed
Leader:
In the very beginning, God separated the darkness and
the light. God called the Light day and the Darkness,
God called Night.
People:
We were once people who dwelled in darkness,
but God has given us the true Light, Jesus Christ.
Leader:
God has blessed us and adopted us as Gods own beloved
children, through the sacrament of Baptism.
People:
The water of baptism brings to us healing and
reconciliation; it is a symbol of nourishment and cleansing.
Leader:
This day is the day of the remembrance of Jesus Baptism,
People:
Let us be reminded of our own adoption by God and
celebrate our joyous connection with Almighty God.
*Opening Prayer
Susan Reed
Beloved One, you call us by name and claim us as your own. As we were
sealed into your love by the waters of our baptism, claim us once again
through the power of your Holy Spirit. May your glory shine forth in
everything we do, that the world might know we are a people of the
water and of the Spirit. Amen.
