GOSPEL READING: Luke 21:5-19 All: Glory to you, O Lord 5When some were speaking about the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, Jesus said, 6 As for these things that you see, the days will come when not one stone will be left upon another; all will be thrown down. 7They asked him, Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign that this is about to take place? 8And Jesus said, Beware that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name and say, I am he! and, The time is near! Do not go after them. 9When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for these things must take place first, but the end will not follow immediately. 10Then he said to them, Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; 11there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and plagues; and there will be dreadful portents and great signs from heaven. 12But before all this occurs, they will arrest you and persecute you; they will hand you over to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors because of my name. 13This will give you an opportunity to testify. 14So make up your minds not to prepare your defence in advance; 15for I will give you words and a wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to withstand or contradict. 16You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, by relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. 17You will be hated by all because of my name. 18But not a hair of your head will perish. 19By your endurance you will gain your souls. All: Praise to you, O Christ Readings for Today Malachi 4:1-2a 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13 Luke 21:5-19 Readings for 20 th November Jer 23:1-6 Col 1:11-20 Luke 23:33-44 Church Office: Mrs C Rostock, St Chad s Church, Roslin Road, Irby, CH61 3UH Open Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 9.30am-12.30pm (term time) Tel 648 8169.

GOSPEL READING: Luke 21:5-19 All: Glory to you, O Lord 5When some were speaking about the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, Jesus said, 6 As for these things that you see, the days will come when not one stone will be left upon another; all will be thrown down. 7They asked him, Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign that this is about to take place? 8And Jesus said, Beware that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name and say, I am he! and, The time is near! Do not go after them. 9When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for these things must take place first, but the end will not follow immediately. 10Then he said to them, Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; 11there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and plagues; and there will be dreadful portents and great signs from heaven. 12But before all this occurs, they will arrest you and persecute you; they will hand you over to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors because of my name. 13This will give you an opportunity to testify. 14So make up your minds not to prepare your defence in advance; 15for I will give you words and a wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to withstand or contradict. 16You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, by relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. 17You will be hated by all because of my name. 18But not a hair of your head will perish. 19By your endurance you will gain your souls.
