Gospel Note:
Unlike the description of Jesus' baptism delivered by Matthew
and Luke, Mark's earlier version describes the opening of the
heavens, the descent of the Spirit, and the voice of God as a
private, inner experience of Jesus alone, rather than a public
event observable by the baptizer or onlookers.
Liturgical Color:
White
Suggested Hymns:
From God The Father, Virgin Born
The Only Son From Heaven
I Bind Unto Myself Today
Bright And Glorious Is The Sky
