The Feast of the Baptism of the Lord and Our Call to New Life
FREE Catholic Classes
Every year, Catholics around the world celebrate the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, marking the end of the Christmas season and the beginning of Ordinary Time in the liturgical calendar. This feast, celebrated on the Sunday after Epiphany, commemorates the moment when Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan River. While this event marks the start of Jesus' public ministry, it also serves as a profound moment for reflection on our own baptism and the grace it brings.
