Sunday, June 21st

This will be the 3rd Sunday after Pentecost.

This Sundays readings are here (pdf).

You can also find the readings for future Sundays, as well as a daily lectionary, here. We’re following the semi-continuous series and usually read from the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV).

This Sunday’s Gospel:

Matthew 10:24-39

“A disciple is not above the teacher, nor a slave above the master; it is enough for the disciple to be like the teacher, and the slave like the master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign those of his household!

“So have no fear of them; for nothing is covered up that will not be uncovered, and nothing secret that will not become known. What I say to you in the dark, tell in the light; and what you hear whispered, proclaim from the housetops. Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. And even the hairs of your head are all counted. So do not be afraid; you are of more value than many sparrows.

“Everyone therefore who acknowledges me before others, I also will acknowledge before my Father in heaven; but whoever denies me before others, I also will deny before my Father in heaven.

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

For I have come to set a man against his father,
and a daughter against her mother,
and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
and one’s foes will be members of one’s own household.

Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up the cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it.

COMPLINE (CHORAL NIGHT PRAYER)

FIRST THURSDAY of each month, 8:30PM [Check calendar]

Every first Thursday of the month, a talented group of vocalists sing ancient prayers to create a rich ambiance for your prayer and meditation. The church is dark, except for the light of candles flickering at the front. The mood is peaceful while keeping a sense of Divine mystery. It is a wonderful way for you to decompress at the end of the day. This event is open for all.
