FFeast of the Baptism if The Lord

When he came into the world, our Lord, the Son of God, became a child and grew in wisdom, age, and grace in the eyes of God and of all who knew him. Jesus welcomed children, believed in their dignity, and held them up as a model for all who are seeking the kingdom of God.

Let us therefore ask for God’s blessing, so that we will devote ourselves to the Christian upbringing of these children and so that they will accept willingly the guidance they need.

Jesus took the children in his arms, blessed them, and held them up as an example for all. We pray that you, Father, will also send your blessing on the children baptised in our parish during the past year.

Eternal Father,
who at the baptism of Jesus revealed Him to be Your Son,
anointing Him with the Holy Spirit:
grant that we may be faithful to our call as Children of God,
listening to you, guided by Your Spirit,
to fulfil our unique and definite purpose. Amen.
