Psalm 102 | A plea for restoration

I will walk in the way of the Lord; I will not hang out with
evil people; I will live with the faithful; I hate the liars and
fake news people.

Acts 21 | Paul is taken into custody and speaks to the crowd
Paul - I am a Jew and spoke to them in Hebrew - I am a Pharisee
and Jesus came to me - Why are you persecuting me? Said Jesus.
I was taken to Damascus and healed me and saw him as I was blind.
You will be telling this news to all the earth for all generations.

Luke 6 | Jesus preaches the Sermon on the Plain
Jesus went off to pray and spent the night there. He called his disciples
called apostles - all named here - a great crowd came to hear Jesus and
healed people. Blessed are you … you will be blessed and rewarded; woe to you … you have already gotten your reward.

O God, you declare your almighty power chiefly in showing mercy and

promises, may become partakers of your heavenly treasure; through
Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

For Mission
O God and Father of all, whom the whole heavens adore:
Let the whole earth also worship you, all nations obey you,
all tongues confess and bless you, and men and women
everywhere love you and serve you in peace; through
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

For Our Ministry
We pray for all in any need, the dislocated, the sick, the suffering,
the oppressed, the persecuted for the faith, those that mourn,
especially (name those here). Bless them O Comforting God. Amen
