Theme for The Sixth Sunday of Easter
The fruit that God wants in our lives is the fruit of love for others. This is best done when we fulfill our Christian vocations by serving our neighbor with loving acts.
Hymn #556
Alleluia. We know that Christ being raised from the dead will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. Alleluia. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world. Alleluia.
O God, the giver of all that is good, by Your holy inspiration grant that we may think those things that are right and by Your merciful guiding accomplish them; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
