Psalm 16 | Background

Protect me O Lord,

I love those who have faith,

I will bless the Lord for God’s advice,

I rest in hope! You will show me the path of life!

1 Corinthians 15

Remember the Good News of Jesus - Christ died, raised, and appeared to over 500 and last of all he appeared to Paul; God’s grace works in me; because we proclaimed you have come to believe. (Christ will never die again!)

Matthew 11

Jesus went on to teach - John in prison - Are you the One? Jesus quotes Isaiah about the healing of people and the word of the Lord being proclaimed.

Today | Pentecost 19 - Proper 23

Collect for the Day
Lord, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow us, that we may continually be given to good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

For Mission

Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hardwood 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 Pilgrim's Blessing

May the babe of Bethlehem be yours to tend;

May the boy of Nazareth be yours for friend;

May the man of Galilee his healing send;

May the Christ of Calvary his courage lend;

May the Risen Lord his presence send

And his holy angels defend you, to the end.  Amen
