Bishop Joseph Siegel<br />
Today we celebrate the Feast of the Baptism of the<br />
Lord Jesus. Liturgically, we end the Christmas season and<br />
we celebrate the beginning of the public ministry of the<br />
Lord Jesus. Today’s gospel presents us with an “adult”<br />
Jesus at the River Jordan. He is baptized by John, the heavens<br />
open and the Father’s voice is heard. This is my beloved<br />
Son—listen to Him! With His baptism, Jesus begins His<br />
public life and invites His disciples to follow Him. He<br />
extends the same invitation to all of us through our<br />
Baptism. This week affords us an opportunity to pray for<br />
those who will follow Jesus in a special way as priests,<br />
brothers and sisters. Vocations are everybody’s business,<br />
and all of us need to attend to promoting and nurturing<br />
vocations whenever and wherever we can. Pray<br />
that we may have priests after the Heart of Christ!<br />
