Communion Sunday
Lent 2C
The
flowers gracing the
altar are given to the glory of God and in memory of Mary and Vito
Giannini, parents and grandparents of Rose and Susan. We also
acknowledge the one year anniversary of the death of Albert Hollenga,
our great friend.
The Eucharist this morning is offered in memory of Albert Hollenga.
We
invite you to maintain a spirit of silence as the prelude begins our
service.

I will tell of your

ALL YOU OFFSPRING OF ISRAEL!

Prayer: Psalm 22
O LORD, DO NOT BE FAR AWAY. COME
QUICKLY TO MY AID! I AM POURED OUT LIKE WATER, ALL MY BONES ARE OUT OF
JOINT. MY HEART IS LIKE WAX; IT IS MELTED WITHIN MY BREAST. DELIVER MY
SOUL...SAVE ME FROM THE MOUTH OF THE LION.

LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.

The
Summary of God's
Law (Mk 12:29b-31)
This is the
first commandment:
HEAR O
ISRAEL,
THE LORD OUR GOD,
THE LORD IS ONE!
THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD
WITH ALL YOUR HEART,
WITH ALL YOUR SOUL,
WITH ALL YOUR MIND,
AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.
This is the
second commandment:
YOU SHALL LOVE
YOUR NEIGHBOR AS
YOURSELF.
There
is no greater commandment
than these.
