The service will be live-streamed, beginning a bit before 10 am EDT; you’ll be able to watch live, or or re-watch the service at this link on YouTube at any time.
The order of service is available here.
You may want to have it handy while joining the stream. The order of service includes the readings and responses, and the words to the hymns, to make it easier to join in participating via the live stream. It also includes prayers you may wish to use during the reception of the Eucharist.
Sundays and Seasons offers this reflection on the readings we’ll hear:
Called to contemplate the cost of discipleship, we might be helped by translating Paul’s request to Philemon into our prayer of the day: Refresh my heart in Christ. Strengthened by the company and forgiveness of Christ in holy communion and recalling God’s grace in remembrance of baptism, we can be strengthened in this hour to “choose life”—to choose life in God as our own.
Our cover image is a photograph of a work by the French sculptor François Auguste René Rodin (1840 – 1917). Entitled “The Hand of God,” it “presents the inchoate figures of Adam and Eve cradled in God’s hand.”
The sculpture is on display at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 800. The photograph is shared by the Metropolitan Museum of Art under the Creative Commons Zero license, and we are grateful to be able to use it.
