READINGS THIS WEEK COLLECT Almighty God, your Son Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life.

PRAYER OVER THE GIFTS Gracious God, you show us your way and give us your divine life. May everything we do be directed by the knowledge of your truth. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ the risen Lord. PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION God of love, in this eucharist we have heard your truth and shared in your life. May we always walk in your way, in the name of Jesus Christ the Lord. A READING FROM THE BOOK OF ACTS Filled with the Holy Spirit, Stephen gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. "Look," he said, "I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!" But they covered their ears, and with a loud shout all rushed together against him. Then they dragged him out of the city and began to stone him; and the witnesses laid their coats at the feet of a young man named Saul. While they were stoning Stephen, he prayed, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit." Then he knelt down and cried out in a loud voice, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them." When he had said this, he died. ACTS 7:55-60 A READING FROM THE FIRST LET- TER OF PETER Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. Come to him, a living stone, though rejected by mortals yet chosen and precious in God's sight, and like living stones, let yourselves be built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For it stands in scripture: "See, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious; and whoever believes MAY 14, 2017 7
in him will not be put to shame." To you then who believe, he is precious; but for those who do not believe, "The stone that the builders rejected has become the very head of the corner," and "A stone that makes them stumble, and a rock that makes them fall." They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own people, in order that you may proclaim the mighty acts of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 1 PETER 2:2-10 THE HOLY GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO JOHN Jesus said, "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am, there you may be also. And you know the way to the place where I am going." Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?" Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him." Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied." Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if you do not, then believe me because of the works themselves. Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it." JOHN 14:1-14 MAY 14, 2017 8
PSALM 31:1-5, 15-16 Chant No. 2 In you, O Lord, have I taken refuge; let me never be / put to shame;* deliver me / in your righteousness. Incline your / ear to me;* make haste to de-/liver me. Be my strong rock, a castle to keep me safe, for you are my crag / and my stronghold,* for the sake of your name, lead / me and guide me. Take me out of the net that they have secretly / set for me,* for you are my tow-/er of strength. Into your hands I com-/mend my spirit,* for you have redeemed me, O Lord, O / God of truth. My times are / in your hand;* rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from those who / persecute me. Make your face to shine up-/on your servant,* and in your loving-/kindness save me.

Psalm 31: 1-6, 18, 19 In te, Domine, Speravi. H. J. Gauntlett 1 In thee, O Lord, have I put my trust; / let me never be put to confusion; deliver me in thy righteousness. 2 Bow down thine ear to me; / make haste to deliver me, 3 And be thou my strong rock and house of defence, / that thou mayest save me. 4 For thou art my strong rock and my castle: / be thou also my guide, and lead me for thy Name's sake. 5 Draw me out of the net that they have hidden for me; / for thou art my strength. 6 Into thy hands I commend my spirit; / for thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, thou God of truth. 18 My times are in thy hand; / deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. 19 Show thy servant the light of thy countenance, / and save me for thy mercy's sake.
