First Sunday after EPIPHANY: Baptism of the Lord

 
Do you remember your Baptism? I’ve asked that question of many people during my time in ministry. It is always interesting to hear the response. That’s what we do, as humans, tell our stories so we remember… our lives, our history, our lessons, our God.
