Thanksgiving Over the Water (Baptism of the Lord)
This seasonal thanksgiving over the water is authorized for use in the Anglican Church of Canada on the Baptism of the Lord. Drawing on rich biblical imagery, it recalls God’s saving work through water and invites the assembly into renewed baptismal identity. Suitable for use within the Holy Eucharist or other liturgical contexts, it may replace the standard thanksgiving over the water where appropriate.
Best suited for: Parish clergy, liturgy planners, worship leaders and communities seeking a seasonal thanksgiving text for the Baptism of the Lord.
