This Sunday - 5th Sunday after Pentecost


Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus.

"Teacher," he said, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?"


Jesus said to him, "What is written in the law? What do you read there?"


The lawyer answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your strength, and with all your mind;

and your neighbor as yourself."


And Jesus said to him, "You have given the right answer;

From the Bishop


Addressing political issues from a Christian perspective


"We can't look at the real worries of the world and say, 'I'm not going to pay any attention to those because they're political,'" says Bishop Hughes. Referencing Matthew 25, where Jesus says, "Whenever you did it for the least of these you did it for me," she suggests that instead we ask ourselves, "How is God calling us to support people?" (Time: 5:31 | Read the transcript.)


 

On the flooding in Texas and how you can help


In response to the natural disaster and the resulting tragic loss so many lives, Bishop Hughes has asked the following:


"I urge all churches to take up a special collection this week and offer prayers for the victims, their families, communities, and first responders. Collections may be sent to the Episcopal Diocese of West Texas, which has established a fund to provide assistance through their churches in the affected area."
