There is a new linen roster at the back of St Mark’s. If you are able, can you please add your name to the roster to do the linen for a month. It’s not an arduous task, just put the linen in a soaker such as Vanish, then rinse it out and iron it. If you are unsure how to iron the different pieces, please just ask me.

Hi folks,
This weekend we remember Jesus’ Baptism, as we start telling the story of Jesus through the Gospel of Luke (Luke 3:15-22). The passage starts in the ministry of John the Baptist, reminds us that John had pointed to Jesus and then describes what happened when Jesus was baptised. God spoke to him to say that Jesus is God’s Son and that God is pleased with him.
The Old Testament reading gives us some background (Isaiah 43:1-7). Isaiah predicted that God would rescue and rededicate the people of God. That the people of God would be beloved by God, rescued, precious and that God would call others home through them. When God called Jesus his Son, God meant that Jesus is the beloved, rescued son who will draw everyone else in.
The same things are true of us. We are God’s redeemed beloved people. And God wants to include everyone in the family, through us.
