Collect Gradual Verse Psalm Old Testament Epistle Gospel |
Hear this, all peoples! Give ear, all inhabitants of the world, both low and high, rich and poor together! Truly no man can ransom another, or give to God the price of his life, for the ransom of their life is costly and can never suffice, This is the path of those who have foolish confidence; yet after them people approve of their boasts. Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol; Death shall be their shepherd, But God will ransom my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. Hear this, all peoples! Give ear, all inhabitants of the world, both low and high, rich and poor together! Ps. 49:7– 8, 13–14a, 15; antiphon: Ps. 49:1–2

Psalm 100
1 Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! 2 Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! 3 Know that the LORD, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! 5 For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. ESV |

The Old Testament Lesson

Collect Gradual Verse Psalm Old Testament Epistle Gospel |
Ecclesiastes 1:2, 12–14; 2:18–26 vanity of vanities! All is vanity. . . . 12I the Preacher have been king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom all that is done under heaven. It is an unhappy business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with. 14I have seen everything that is done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind. . . . 2:18I hated all my toil in which I toil under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the man who will come after me, 19and who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will be master of all for which I toiled and used my wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity. 20So I turned about and gave my heart up to despair over all the toil of my labors under the sun, 21because sometimes a person who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave everything to be enjoyed by someone who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil. 22What has a man from all the toil and striving of heart with which he toils beneath the sun? 23For all his days are full of sorrow, and his work is a vexation. Even in the night his heart does not rest. This also is vanity. 24There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God, 25for apart from him who can eat or who can have enjoyment? 26For to the one who pleases him God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given the business of gathering and collecting, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after wind. ESV |

Colossians 3:1–11 5Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6On account of these the wrath of God is coming. 7In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. 11Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all.

Luke 12:13–21 13Someone in the crowd said to [Jesus], “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” 14But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or arbitrator over you?” 15And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” 16And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, 17and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ 18And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.’ 20But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”ESV |

The Lord’s Prayer
Download the entire pdf
Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. This, then, is how you should pray: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. (Matthew 6:8-13)
Through the summer beginning on June 20, our sermons will focus on the Lord’s Prayer:
| Our Father, Who Art in Heaven | June 20 |
| Hallowed by Thy Name | June 27 |
| Thy Kingdom Come | July 4 |
| Thy Will be Done, on Earth as It is in Heaven | July 11 |
| Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread | July 18 |
| Forgive Us our Trespasses as We Forgive | July 25 |
| Lead Us Not into Temptation | August 1 |
| But Deliver Us from Evil | August 8 |
| For Thine is the Kingdom, the Power, The Glory Forever | August 15 |
It is our hope that you will use this summer sermon series as an opportunity to renew your prayer life.
