The Third Sunday After Pentecost – Divine Service 1

 

The Lord is the God of compassion.  He bore the Israelites on Eagles’ wings and called them His treasured people.  Jesus healed every disease and affliction through the cities and villages.  But His greatest mercy is shown in such love that Christ would die for weak and ungodly people – sinners.  Justified by His blood, we are saved from the wrath of God.  This message must be shared, for the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore, the church proclaims the coming of Christ.    

 

 

Almighty, eternal God, in the Word of Your apostles and prophets You have proclaimed to us Your saving will. Grant us faith to believe Your promises that we may receive eternal salvation; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
