3. Let the light of Christ shine in our lives
Gather
The Lord be with you
And also with you
Let the light of Christ shine in our lives

4. Receive
Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan, to be baptized by him. John would have prevented him, saying, ‘I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?’ But Jesus answered him, ‘Let it be so now; for it is proper for us in this way to fulfil all righteousness.’ Then he consented. And when Jesus had been baptized, just as he came up from the water, suddenly the heavens were opened to him and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.’
From the Gospel according to Matthew, Chapter 3, verses 13 to 17

5. Engage Some discussion ideas …
How can you tell if someone you meet is a person of peace and caring?
If you had all power how would you bring peace in the world?
Activity suggestion … Make some dove shapes and write on prayers for peace for our world.
Video suggestion … Baptism of Jesus from the film “Jesus of Nazareth”

6. Respond Amen Heavenly Father, at the Jordan you revealed Jesus
as your Son:
may we recognize him as our Lord
and know ourselves to be your beloved
children;
through Jesus Christ our Saviour.
Amen

7. Go out into the world with the light of Christ
Let us bless the Lord
Thanks be to God
Go out into the world with the light of Christ
