Theme for The Third Sunday after Pentecost

The focus of today's readings lies on forgiveness. God wants to forgive sinners for the sake of Christ. Repentance, however, precedes forgiveness.

Hymn #834

Alleluia. The Lord also has put away your sin; you shall not die. Your faith has saved you; go in peace. Alleluia.

Almighty and everlasting God, increase in us Your gifts of faith, hope, and love that we may receive the forgiveness You have promised and love what You have commanded; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
