Readings for the Week

Readings for Sunday, January 10:

Is 55:1-11: The “water” stands for Baptism but also for the word of God. Both will give us strength to keep
moving, especially if we make use of daily Bible readings.

1 Jn 5:1-9: At Baptism, we had the love of God placed in us as in a seed, and it bore fruit both vertically and horizontally toward God and neighbor. If we practice our faith by keeping the commandments, we end up
victors over the world.

Mk 1:7-11: The Spirit of God is seen coming upon Christ. The words of Isaiah are beginning to be fulfilled.

Today’s Message:   Jesus is the beloved Son of the Father. He is the light of the nations and Lord of all
creation . To Him be all glory and praise!
