Water. It is such a strong symbol and sacramental
sign. It is used throughout the Church and
its sacraments. Everyday many will come and go through the doors of the church, dipping
their fingers in the holy water fonts, blessing themselves. But on this Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, we
need to take a moment to pause and remind ourselves of the meaning and
obligations that this carries for each and everyone one of us. What does that look like for you?
And so we end this
Advent/Christmas season as it began – with John the Baptist, at the River Jordan – this time, reluctantly
baptising his cousin Jesus as Christ begins his public ministry. So what does your ministry look like? And how does a cello player, among the rubble
of Sarajevo, provide insight to what we are called to do?
