Thanks for praying and worshiping with me today. As always, our Scripture readings and general order come from the Book of Common Prayer (1979) Daily Office. In the Church calendar, it is Ordinary Time, Proper 25. We’ll begin with a sung version of the opening sentences (I was glad when they said to me…). After a prayer of confession, we’ll read Psalm 1 followed by the Gloria Patri. Our Gospel reading is Matthew 22:34-46. After the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, and the Collect of the Day, we’ll sing, “O, for a Thousand Tongues” by Charles Wesley. Then we’ll enter a time of guided prayer.

I liked Ben’s spontaneous prayers after the Lord’s Prayer when he talked about the cruel words between brothers and sisters. I also appreciated the hymn that followed which was blended with a contemporary chorus. Well done, Ben!
Thank you, Laura!
