At the River Jordan


Bishop Provenzano leads a renewal of baptismal promises at the banks of the Jordan River:

Question Do you renounce Satan and all the spiritual forces
of wickedness that rebel against God?

Answer I renounce them.

Question Do you renounce the evil powers of this world
which corrupt and destroy the creatures of God?

Answer I renounce them.

Question Do you renounce all sinful desires that draw you
from the love of God?

Answer I renounce them.

Question Do you turn to Jesus Christ and accept him as your
Savior?

Answer I do.

Question Do you put your whole trust in his grace and love?
Answer I do.

(Book of Common Prayer, Holy Baptism)
