Sunday 3rd November 2024 – Thirty-first Sunday of the Year<\/p> <\/b>\n\n

31st Sunday of the Year<\/p>\n\n\n

\n A reading from the Book of Deuteronomy 6:2-6 <\/b>
\n\nListen, Israel: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart. <\/i> <\/p> \n\n

Moses said to the people: \u201cIf you fear the Lord your God all the days of your life and if you keep all his laws and commandments which I lay on you, you will have a long life, you and your son and your grandson. Listen then, Israel, keep and observe what will make you prosper and give you great increase, as the Lord the God of your fathers has promised you, giving you a land where milk and honey flow.
\n \u201cListen, Israel: the Lord our God is the one Lord. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength. Let these words I urge on you today be written on your heart.\u201d <\/p> \n\n

\n Psalm: 17:2-4, 47, 51 <\/b>
\n\n I love you, Lord, my strength,
\n my rock, my fortress, my saviour.
\n My God is the rock where I take refuge;
\n my shield, my mighty help, my stronghold.
\n The Lord is worthy of all praise,
\n when I call I am saved from my foes. <\/p> \n\n

Long life to the Lord, my rock!
\n Praised be the God who saves me,
\n He has given great victories to his king
\n and shown his love for his anointed. <\/p> \n\n

\n A reading from the Letter to the Hebrews 7:23-28
<\/b> \n\nBecause he remains for ever, Christ can never lose his priesthood. <\/i> <\/p> \n\n

There used to be a great number of priests under the former covenant, because death put an end to each one of them; but this one, because he remains for ever, can never lose his priesthood. It follows, then, that his power to save is utterly certain, since he is living for ever to intercede for all who come to God through him.
\n To suit us, the ideal high priest would have to be holy, innocent and uncontaminated, beyond the influence of sinners, and raised up above the heavens; one who would not need to offer sacrifices every day, as the other high priests do for their own sins and then for those of the people, because he has done this once and for all by offering himself. The Law appoints high priests who are men subject to weakness; but the promise on oath, which came after the Law, appointed the Son who is made perfect for ever. <\/p> \n\n

\n A reading from the Gospel of St Mark 12:28-34
<\/b> \n\nThis is the first commandment. The second is like it. <\/i> <\/p> \n\n

One of the scribes came up to Jesus and put a question to him, \u201cWhich is the first of all the commandments?\u201d Jesus replied, \u201cThis is the first: Listen, Israel, the Lord our God is the one Lord, and you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: You must love your neighbour as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these.\u201d The scribe said to him, \u201cWell spoken, Master; what you have said is true: that he is one and there is no other. To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and strength, and to love your neighbour as yourself, this is far more important than any holocaust or sacrifice.\u201d Jesus, seeing how wisely he had spoken, said, \u201cYou are not far from the kingdom of God.\u201d And after that no one dared to question him any more. <\/p> \n\n\n\n

Sunday 10th November 2024 – Thirt-second Sunday of the Year<\/p> <\/b>\n\n

32nd Sunday of the Year<\/p>\n\n

\n\n A reading from the First Book of Kings 17:10-16 <\/b>
\n\nThe widow made a little scone from her meal and brought it to Elijah. <\/i> <\/p> \n\n

Elijah the Prophet went off to Sidon. And when he reached the city gate, there was a widow gathering sticks; addressing her he said, \u201cPlease bring me a little water in a vessel for me to drink.\u201d She was setting off to bring it when he called after her. \u201cPlease\u201d he said \u201cbring me a scrap of bread in your hand.\u201d \u201cAs the Lord your God lives,\u201d she replied \u201cI have no baked bread, but only a handful of meal in a jar and a little oil in a jug; I am just gathering a stick or two to go and prepare this for myself and my son to eat, and then we shall die.\u201d But Elijah said to her, \u201cDo not be afraid, go and do as you have said; but first make a little scone of it for me and bring it to me, and then make some for yourself and for your son. For thus the Lord speaks, the God of Israel: <\/p> \n\n
