They delivered him to Caesarea and Felix said there would be a
trial when his accusers came there to be heard.

Luke 7 |
The disciples of John reported to John and then he sent them to
ask if he was the Messiah; Jesus said people are being healed, the

poor hear good news, the Kingdom of God is coming. Jesus tells of

how people reacted to John. Can you hear the Word of the Lord?

Prayers and Intercessions
Collect for Week

Almighty and everlasting God, you are always more ready to hear than we to pray, and to give more than we either desire or deserve: Pour upon us the abundance of your mercy, forgiving us those things of which our conscience is afraid, and giving us those good things for which we are not worthy to ask, except through the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ our Savior; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

(Proper 22, Year B)

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

(The prayers of the people, Episcopal Parish of St. John the Baptist, Portland, OR
