This year will be great.
We will start a series of blogs on the symbols in worship, church and in liturgy and reflect on how it relates to a significant event that I will participate.
Today is Epiphany Sunday. The lectionary text is on Mark 1:4-11 and the story of the Baptism of Jesus.
The baptismal font is situated in the altar. It is used for the sacrament of Baptism. The water used during in baptism is very symbolic as it relates to the many references of the water in the Bible as a cleansing of the people, the sins, the protection of God, the quenching of the thirst and the living water.
