Thus far, a number of generous souls have pledged a one-time or three year commitment to come to the aid of seniors in need. A heart felt thank you and God Bless can be heard around North Carolina. If you have not had the opportunity to pledge yet, there is still time and there is still need. Please contact Lynne Hoffman at freetwobeme01@yahoo.com or lhoffma@mplyllc.com and we will be happy to take your pledge. Pledge cards are available in the Narthex for those wishing to contribute. Again,
thank you and GOD BLESS!

The gospel for Easter’s seventh Sunday is always taken from the long prayer Jesus prays for his followers in John’s gospel on the night before his death, and always includes Jesus’ desire that his followers will be one as he and the Father are one. This oneness is not mere doctrinal agreement or institutional unity, but mutual abiding, interpenetrating life, mutual love and joy. This oneness is the work of the Spirit whom we have received but also await. Come, Holy Spirit!

First Reading: Acts 1:15-17, 21-26
Psalm: Psalm 1 (6)
Second Reading: 1 John 5:9-13
Gospel: John 17:6-19
Color: White
