Theme: Faith and fellowship
1st
Reading: Acts of
the Apostles chapter 2: 42 – 47
The early church in Jerusalem grew rapidly because of the
common identity of faith and fellowship among the congregation. The church
today can benefit immensely from the examples of our ancestors in the faith.
2nd
Reading: 1 Peter,
chapter 1: 3 – 9
Peter compares our rebirth through baptism, to the
resurrection of Jesus. This regeneration positions us to access what Peter
describes as our imperishable inheritance.
Gospel Reading: John, chapter 20: 19 - 31
Jesus greets his disciples with the peace offering, and
breathed the Holy Spirit on them, to empower them. Christ’s statement: “Blessed
are they who have not seen and have believed,” underscores the importance of
faith in the life of the Christian.
