Baptism
An invitation for reflection
throughout this first week of Lent
Through
the imagery of the Bible, water is used repeatedly to symbolize life and the
presence and hand of God.
What
are some of the ways in which water is critical to our lives today?
Are
there ways that we can relate those images of water symbolically to the work of
God?
In
the Renewal of Baptism ritual, we say “Remember your baptism and be thankful.”
What do you know about your baptism?
Where and when were you baptized?
Who was present at your baptism?
Do you have your baptismal
certificate?
By
Rachel Evans’ definition, we are “baptized” by all of the people who introduce
us to Jesus.
Who
would you list as the people who “baptized” you in this sense?
Who
was responsible for introducing you to Jesus?
What are the times and church leaders in your life that
shaped your early views toward church and religion?
