Some Sayings of Jesus
Jesus said to his disciples,
‘Occasions for stumbling are bound to come, but woe to anyone by whom they
come! It would be better for you if a millstone were hung
around your neck and you were thrown into the sea than for you to cause one of
these little ones to stumble. Be on your
guard! If another disciple sins, you must rebuke the
offender, and if there is repentance, you must forgive. And if the same person sins against you seven times a
day, and turns back to you seven times and says, “I repent”, you must forgive.’

Together,
let us pray
For the people of this congregation…
For
those who suffer and those in trouble…
For the concerns of this local community…

For
the Church universal – it’s leaders, it’s members, and
it’s mission
In communion with the saints…Amen
