Psalm 69

Galatians 5
Watch your own behavior and not your neighbor's; you will reap what you sow; let us do good of all especially the faithful.


Matthew 16

Jesus tells his small group of his suffering and dead by the religious leaders; Peter can't believe it and says to him, No!; Jesus rebukes the temptation of being an earthly ruler and tells all his followers to go to the point of losing an individual in order to follow Jesus.

Collect of the Day: Proper 5

O God, from whom all good proceeds: Grant that by your inspiration we may think those things that are right, and by your merciful guiding may do them; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

For Mission

Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.

A Collect for Fridays


Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking in the way of the cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. Amen.
