2nd Sunday of Easter, April 16, 2023

Acts of the Apostles 2:  They ate their meals with exultation and sincerity of heart, praising God and enjoying favor with all the people.

1 Peter 1:  Although you have not seen him you love him; even though you do not see him now yet believe in him,…

John 20:  Have  you come to believe because you have seen me?  Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.

  • Reminder for the Presentation of the Lord, February 2, 2025

    Malachi 3: Look! I'm sending my messenger on ahead to clear the way for me. Suddenly, out of the blue, the Leader you've been looking for will enter his Temple – yes, the Messenger of the Covenant, the one you've been waiting for.

    Hebrews 2:  That's why he had to enter into every detail of human life. Then, when he came before God as high priest to get rid of the people's sins,  he would have already experienced it all himself – all the pain, all the testing – and would be able to help where help was needed.

    Luke 2:  Then when the days stipulated by Moses for purification were complete, they took him up to Jerusalem to offer him to God  as commanded in God's Law: "Every male who opens the womb shall be a holy offering to God,"

    A Summer Blessing

     

    May you walk with God

    This summer

    In whatever you do

    Wherever you go

     

    Walking with God means…

    Walking with honesty

    And with courage,

    Walking with love

    And respect

    And concern for the feelings of others

     

    May you talk to God

    This summer

    And every day and

    In every situation

     

    Talking with God means…

    Praying words of praise

    For the beauty of creation

    Saying prayers of thanks

    For friends and good times,

    Asking God's help

    In all your decisions

    Expressing sorrow

    When you have failed

     

    May you talk with God

    Every day. Amen.
