Baptism of the Lord
When we are baptized in the waters, we are adopted into God’s family and actually become, in Jesus, children of the Father. Baptism happens once and is the doorway to the other sacraments. Receiving the Eucharist (which we do again and again and again) is becoming who we are: the Body of Christ. So ask yourselves a few questions: “How do I come to Mass? What do I see as my role at Mass? How am I engaged at Mass?”
“Priest of God,
Celebrate this Mass as if it is your first Mass,
Your last Mass and your only Mass.”
“People of God,
Celebrate this Mass as if it is your first Mass,
Your last Mass and your only Mass.”
