My Dear Friends in Jesus Christ,

The feast of the Baptism of our Lord presents us with the Third Epiphany, or manifestation of our Lord, the first being the Nativity of our Lord and the second, the feast of the Magi. The Baptism of Jesus was the moment when he passed from the relative obscurity of village life in Nazareth onto the public stage of his mission of proclaiming God's Kingdom. John the Baptist was preaching in the wilderness and was baptizing all those who would respond to his message of repentance. The purpose of his ministry of preaching and Baptism was to direct people toward Jesus who would baptize them with the Holy Spirit. The Scriptures tell us that Jesus came from Galilee to River Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. Jesus subjects himself to this simple act of repentance and is baptized by his own cousin. Baptism is meant as an acknowledgement of sin and Jesus was totally sinless. He had no need of repentance or forgiveness. Yet this was the beginning of his mission as was planned by his Father.

The Baptism of Christ as recorded in all the four Gospels indicates the Trinitarian Revelation and the commencement of the public ministry of Jesus. When Jesus came out of the water after His Baptism, the heavens opened and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in the form of a dove. There is also the voice of the Father that comes from the cloud, "This is my Son, the Beloved, with whom I am well pleased."

My Beloved Ones, here am I with lots of emotions and feelings of the season; during this pandemic time we are holding hand in hand with our faith and warmth of love to face these situations. The priests and the volunteers are working hard to make everybody safe and healthy. As a family, we all work hard for the well-being of our community, encountering God through different ministries, showing how the faithful face their trials and tribulations through their trust in God. Many people lost their loved ones during this time and many got sick and recovered. It was really a sad moment to face that reality. We, the priests, were privileged to be with them to comfort and console the families. From the bottom of my heart, I extend my appreciation for the office staff, deacon, deacon candidates, and the volunteers who tirelessly worked to make everything lively for our families. Many of you extend your warmth and love through Christmas cards with beautiful touching words and gifts. Thank you for your support for the church.

We are proud of your generous hearts and love. Let us walk together with our faith hand in hand, support each other, hold each other, to overcome these situations. May the Lord continue to shower his blessings upon our families forever. Love you all,

Fr. Biiu
