Psalm Lord, in your great love, answer me (Psalm 69). Second Reading The grace of God overflows for all (Romans 5:12-15). Gospel All who acknowledge Jesus before others will likewise be acknowledged by Jesus before the Father (Matthew 10:26-33). FEAR NOT How do people find hope in the face of suffering and death? That is the question addressed by today s scriptures. We hear of the suffering of Jeremiah and the psalmist. We hear of the death that reigned from Adam to Moses (Romans 5:14). We hear of the fears of the Twelve as Jesus sends them out into the world to preach and heal. Through all this tribulation one message rings out loud and clear Do not be afraid! The God who saved Jeremiah and the psalmist and Jesus is fully present to save us through the gracious gift of Jesus Christ. We have nothing and no one to fear. WALKING TOWARD GOD If we walk one step toward God, God will run ten steps toward us. Anonymous Announcements: We are excited to announce this years Church Picnic will be held on August 6th Normal Mass Schedule. Special Guest Elvis will start performing at 11:45 a.m. Following One More Time Polka Band.
