Collect of the Day:
Heavenly
Father, during His earthly ministry Your Son Jesus healed the sick and raised
the dead. By the healing medicine of the
Word and Sacraments pour into our hearts such love toward You that we may live
eternally; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with
You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

Catechism Reading:
What does such
baptizing with water indicate?
It indicates
that the Old Adam in us
should by
daily contrition and repentance
be drowned and
die with all sins and evil desires,
and that a new
man should daily emerge and arise
to live before
God in righteousness and purity forever.
Where is this
written?
St. Paul writes in Romans chapter six:
"We were
therefore buried with Him
through
baptism into death
in order that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead
through the
glory of the Father, we too may live a new life" (Romans 6:4).
