Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he got up and followed him. And as he sat at dinner in the house, many tax collectors and sinners came and were sitting with him and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?" But when he heard this, he said, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners."[Matthew 9:9-13, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
The deepest of level of communication is not communication, but communion. It is wordless ... beyond speech ... beyond concept.[Thomas Merton]
Pray Together with Us:
Your church, Lord, remember,
And thus from all evil deliver her,
Making her perfect in your love.
Bring here united, made holy, from the four corners of the horizon,
Into your kingdom, which you have prepared for her.[Hispanic litany]
