We are very close to our goal! You have generously donated $710 toward our goal of $1,000 which is one of our Operation Inasmuch projects.

Lessons for Sunday, May 8
First Reading: Acts 16:16-34
The owners of a slave-girl who used her powers to tell fortunes threw Paul and Silas into jail for “healing” her and, consequently, ruining their business. In prison, Paul and Silas bring the good news of the gospel to the jailer and his family.
Psalm 97
Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous. (Ps. 97:12)
Second Reading: Revelation 22:12-14, 16-17, 20-21
The ascended Christ, hidden from our sight, promises to come again. We eagerly pray, “Come, Lord Jesus,” with all who respond to this invitation.
Gospel: John 17:20-26
Jesus prays that the life of his followers will be characterized by an intimate unity of identity with God. To be so identified with God means also to share in God’s mission: to proclaim the word that will bring others into this same unity.
