Isaiah 43:1-7; Luke 3:15-17, 21-22
“Together, we celebrate who we are and whose we are. We are followers of God’s beloved son “with whom God is well pleased.” And we recognize our mutual responsibility to support each other in our pain, in our joys, in our growth side-by-side – as siblings made one, made whole in Christ.”
