Theme: Noah’s ark prefigures baptism
 
Text: Genesis 9:8-15; Mark 1: 9-11; 1 Peter 3:19b-22
 
In the reading today from 1 Peter 3, we hear that the ark prefigures baptism….we have this thread through the lectionary readings today, first from Genesis 9 the story of the flood and ark, then from Mark a baptism, Jesus, followed by Peter indicating those two stories are related – that Noah’s story prefigures or is a type of baptism.
