In this week’s Gospel we hear again two examples of Christ’s divinity and of his humanity. He feeds the crowd who has come to hear him, knowing they were hungry and would have difficulty finding food for such a large group. And he walks on the water to join his disciples in a wave tossed boat. He knew they were frightened. He calmed their fears.

Christ knows our own needs and fears. We only have to believe in Him and trust in His love and care.

Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.

Thanks be to God!

In today’s readings, Jesus is shown as the Good Shepherd, having compassion on the people who had come to him seeking comfort, seeking healing, seeking direction. Even today, his flock continues to seek Him, to hear his voice, to find peace in His presence.

Follow the Shepherd. Find your inner sheep.

Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.

In this week’s Gospel lesson we hear the story of the young daughter of Jairus who Christ raised from death, and of the woman healed from hemorrhages by her faith. Both miracles. Some say we don’t have miracles today, but we do! The laughter of a child. The rains that bring crops and flowers and rainbows. A vaccine to stop a pandemic. God brings us miracles, we just need the eyes to see them.

Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.

Thanks be to God!

There will be no live streaming of the Second Service this week as the videographer is on vacation.

In today’s second reading,we hear the words of Paul to the Corinthians, “For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with human hands, eternal in the heavens.”

77 years ago today, the Allied landings in Normandy were the beginning of the end of the Second World War. Many lives were lost. Many earthly tents destroyed. We pray for wisdom and guidance that those lives, and so many more lives lost since then, were not lost in vain.

Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.

Thanks be to God!

In this week’s Gospel readings from John, we hear again the words of Jesus and the great promise of love and redemption, “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.”

You are Loved!

Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.

Thanks be to God!
