Sunday after Pentecost (Proper 24):
Psalm
96 or 96:1-9;
Isaiah
45:1-7; 1
Thessalonians 1:1-10; Matthew

For our Gospel did not come to you in word
alone, but also in power (1 Thes. 1:5)
It’s the Twenty-second Sunday after Pentecost,
the Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time and all are welcome! It’s
the fifth Sunday before advent and only four Sundays remain in this
church year (A). This week our thoughts turn to the earthquake in
Pakistan, India and Afghanistan killing more than 3,000 people and
injuring many more.
Let us pray for: peace in our
world, all those affected by the destructive earthquake in Pakistan
and India and devastating floods in Central America. The famine
stricken African countries of Niger, Mali, Mauritania and Burkina
Faso, the troubled lands of Africa (especially Liberia, Cote
d’Ivoire [former : Ivory Coast ] and Sudan) and the people of
Guyana. We also pray for Presiding Bishop Frank Griswold, Diocesan
Bishop John Croneberger and his wife. We remember in prayer Hazel
Carter, Francis Coleman, Carolyn Goodwin, Eula Jefferson, Louise
Meggett, Janice Nugent, Rudolph Perry, Tony Pina, Victoria Sawyer,
Amanda Scott, Rev. Mildred J. Solomon, and Aquinda Toppins. Finally,
we pray for all congregations in our diocese and for the safety of
our troops.
