Your Faith Journey - Finding God Through Words, Song And Praise

Year C – First Sunday in Lent – March 9, 2025 Pastor Megan Floyd Luke 4:1-13 Grace and peace to you from God, our Creator, and from our Lord, Jesus Christ, in whose death and resurrection we share through the gift of Holy Baptism. Amen.   *** What a joyful day!  Today we celebrate Stella who has been adopted into God’s family as our sibling in Christ… through the waters of baptism and through God’s word… God’s holy promise… spoken for us. God’s promise to Stella today reminds us that this promise is for us as well… that even though we may find ourselves lost and alone in the wilderness, God’s promise to us in our baptism is that God is with us… always…  God promises to meet us in our wilderness, and that through water and word, our sins are drowned each day… and each day we are made new, forgiven, and loved. Through baptism, we share in our Lord’s death and resurrection… dying daily to our sin … and rising anew each day, embracing the promise of new life with Christ…  Each day we are reborn, reconciled to God
