Ϯ OFFERTORY RESPONSE
MESSAGE
9 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in
the Jordan. 10 And just as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens
torn apart and the Spirit descending like a dove on him. 11 And a voice came from
heaven, “You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased.”
Chancel Choir
Ϯ SCRIPTURE
Offertory Prayer and a Time of Giving
4 John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And people from the whole Judean countryside
and all the people of Jerusalem were going out to him, and were baptized by him in
the river Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 Now John was clothed with camel’s hair,
with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 He proclaimed, “The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me; I am not worthy
to stoop down and untie the thong of his sandals. 8 I have baptized you with water;
but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
