There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism. — Ephesians 4:4-5

We live in an unsteady and unpredictable world, yet we have hope through God’s call that never changes.

During JYP, we will explore the sacrament of baptism and our baptismal covenant to see ways we are called to live our lives in God’s one hope and how we can share that hope with others.
