Collect
O God, whose Son Jesus is the good shepherd of your people: Grant
that when we hear his voice we may know him who calls us each by
name, and follow where he leads; who, with you and the Holy Spirit,
lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading (seated) Acts 9:36-43
Now in Joppa there was a disciple whose name was Tabitha,
which in Greek is Dorcas. She was devoted to good works and
acts of charity. At that time she became ill and died. When they
had washed her, they laid her in a room upstairs. Since Lydda
was near Joppa, the disciples, who heard that Peter was there,
sent two men to him with the request, "Please come to us without
delay." So Peter got up and went with them; and when he arrived,
they took him to the room upstairs. All the widows stood beside
him, weeping and showing tunics and other clothing that Dorcas
had made while she was with them. Peter put all of them outside,
and then he knelt down and prayed. He turned to the body and
said, "Tabitha, get up." Then she opened her eyes, and seeing
Peter, she sat up. He gave her his hand and helped her up. Then
calling the saints and widows, he showed her to be alive. This
became known throughout Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
Meanwhile he stayed in Joppa for some time with a certain
Simon, a tanner.
Psalm 23 BCP Page 612*
“My Shepherd will supply my need” Hymn 664
Second Reading (seated) Revelation 7:9-17
I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count,
from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages,
standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white,
with palm branches in their hands. They cried out in a loud voice,
saying,
“Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the throne, and
to the Lamb!”
And all the angels stood around the throne and around the elders
and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before
the throne and worshiped God, singing,
“Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and
honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever!
Amen.”
Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these,
robed in white, and where have they come from?" I said to him,
"Sir, you are the one that knows." Then he said to me, "These are
they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed
their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
For this reason they are before the throne of God,
and worship him day and night within his temple,
and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter them.
They will hunger no more, and thirst no more;
the sun will not strike them,
nor any scorching heat;
for the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their
shepherd,
and he will guide them to springs of the water of life,
and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
Sequence Hymn (standing) “Saviour, like a shepherd lead us” Hymn 708
The Gospel John 10:22-30
At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It
was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of
Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long
will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly."
Jesus answered, "I have told you, and you do not believe. The works
that I do in my Father's name testify to me; but you do not believe,
because you do not belong to my sheep. My sheep hear my voice. I
know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will
never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand. What my Father
has given me is greater than all else, and no one can snatch it out of the
Father's hand. The Father and I are one."

Adult Education: Community Conversations
9:00 a.m. Brown Library
Meaningful Conversation in Community requires a willingness to
acknowledge differences, listen deeply & without judgment, face our
fears and discomfort, and walk alongside one another in challenging
times. In this socially and politically charged Easter Season, we are
using our Sunday morning Adult Education hour to practice these skills.
Members of the congregation are bringing us pieces of writing (a poem,
an article, a short essay, and an excerpt from a novel) by authors of an
ethnicity or gender or religion or cultural perspective different from their
own. We’ll read these pieces aloud, and then be guided in conversation
about them. Join us in the Brown Library at 9:00 a.m. All are welcome.
