Revised Common Lectionary Readings for Sunday, October 23, 2011, the Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A)
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, "All right, then, have it your way." Please keep Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church in your prayers. Pray for the members of Session and for me. Pray for the leaders of the congregation who serve with open hearts. Pray for the "angels" of the church whose generosity throughout the years has equipped us for mission. Pray for those who are not here yet, those whom God is preparing to join us as we seek to serve Christ in the community. Pray that God's will and purpose for us will be fulfilled. Pray an open heart to the transformation that is already underway. Thy will be done, Lord, thy will be done. Amen.
Peace of Christ Always,
George
