Baptism is God’s Work

Baptism is God’s work.

In this work we are delivered, raised, united, anointed and joined it says in our baptismal service.

God knows who we are. God knows our abilities and our disabilities. God has spoken us into this world “Let there be (your name)” . God has created us – each of us, unique, a specific combination of skills, experiences, and passions.
