This Week's Gospel Reading

Altar flowers were given to the Glory of God by Carol Clark in memory of Hal Clark and the anniversary of Philip & Catharine Bell.

With pity behold the sorrows of our hearts;

 

Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all of the Law and the Prophets.

The Book of Common Prayer, Holy Euchrist I, p 324.

 

The Holy Gospel According to John 7:37-39

On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me, and let the one who believes in me drink. As the scripture has said, `Out of the believer's heart shall flow rivers of living water.'" Now he said this about the Spirit, which believers in him were to receive; for as yet there was no Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
