Batman's Column

January 9, 2022

It iz me, Batman, da rectory doggo! 4 Christmas my Grandmom and Granddad gaved me da bestest gift: A New Jacket! Da best part about it iz dat it protectz me from da rain and da snow becauz I do notz lik being wet (except 4 da swimming pool. I iz weird. I admitz it). Now I can go on walkiez in da snow ALL DA TIME! U know who didn’t mind getting wet? Jesus! And we celebratez His Baptism today! Da reason dis iz a big deal iz not only iz it da end of the Christmas season, but it remidz us about da importanz of wut Baptism doez: John had a baptism o repentance. Jesus has a baptism of fire and da Holy Spirit! John’s baptism helped peoplez change dere livz and dat wuz good. Jesus’ baptism can sav us from the effects o sin and death and dat iz really someting! All from getting wet and being washed clean! So how haz we lived out our baptism? How hav we shown da gift o faith dat we received from da Holy Spirit on dat day? Du u tink da I can wear down Daddo 4 a 3rd walkie every day? May we be blessed by da waterz o Baptism and liv out our lif o faith 2 da fullest! 

God Bless (and more snow pleaz)! 

Batman, da rectory doggo
