Principal's Letter
January 11, 2019
Dear Parent/Guardian,
I have baptized you with water;
He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.
Mark 1:8
This Sunday we celebrate the Baptism of Our Lord and the end of the Christmas season. In the gospel we will hear that John the Baptist did not feel worthy to baptize Jesus but did so because Jesus asked him.
John is leading us to Jesus. He is an example of doing what is asked of him even though he did not feel worthy. At our baptism we received the Holy Spirit. The Spirit guides us and directs us, if we are open to this direction.
As we enjoy the slower pace of January, be mindful that the Spirit is with you. Think about how you are living your baptismal promise. Are you mindful of the Spirit directing and guiding you to fulfill your promise?
