Theme for The Second Sunday in Lent
For sinners to live, they must be born from above, born again by water and the Spirit. Holy Baptism, then, is the most important event in the life of a person because through Holy Baptism one receives what Christ has earned through his death on the cross.
Hymn #708
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
O God, You see that of ourselves we have no strength. By Your mighty power defend us from all adversities that may happen to the body and from all evil thoughts that may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
