A Reading from the Acts of the Apostles: Acts 7.55-end
But filled with the Holy Spirit, Stephen gazed into heaven and saw the glory of
God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. ‘Look,’ he said, ‘I see the
heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!’ But
they covered their ears, and with a loud shout all rushed together against him.
Then they dragged him out of the city and began to stone him; and the
witnesses laid their coats at the feet of a young man named Saul. While they
were stoning Stephen, he prayed, ‘Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.’ Then he knelt
down and cried out in a loud voice, ‘Lord, do not hold this sin against them.’
When he had said this, he died.
A Reading from the First Letter of Peter: 1 Peter 2.2-10
Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may
grow into salvation— if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.
Come to him, a living stone, though rejected by mortals yet chosen and
precious in God’s sight, and like living stones, let yourselves be built into a
spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable
to God through Jesus Christ. For it stands in scripture:
‘See, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious;
and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.’
To you then who believe, he is precious; but for those who do not believe,
‘The stone that the builders rejected
has become the very head of the corner’, and
‘A stone that makes them stumble,
and a rock that makes them fall.’
They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people,
in order that you may proclaim the mighty acts of him who called you out of
darkness into his marvellous light.
Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people;
once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

The Gospel
Sung by all
Choir: Abide in me as I abide in you.
Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit. John 15.4-5
All:
Alleluia, Alleluia….
Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John, John 14.1-14
Response: Glory be to thee, O Lord
Jesus said to his disciples:
‘Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my
Father’s house there are many dwelling-places. If it were not so, would I have
told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for
you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am, there
you may be also. And you know the way to the place where I am going.’
Thomas said to him, ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we
know the way?’ Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No
one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will know my
Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.’
Philip said to him, ‘Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.’ Jesus
said to him, ‘Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know
me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, “Show us
the Father”? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in
me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who
dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father
is in me; but if you do not, then believe me because of the works themselves.
Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I
do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the
Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be
glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it.
Reader: This is the Gospel of the Lord.
Response: Praise be to thee, O Christ.
