Theme for The Fifth Sunday after Pentecost

God's messengers are often opposed for the same reason that Christ himself is opposed, namely, that he does not fit the kind of image of a Savior for which they are looking.

Hymn #688

Alleluia. When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. Alleluia.

Lord of all power and might, author and giver of all good things, graft into our hearts the love of Your name and nourish us with all goodness that we may love and serve our neighbor; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
