Collect
God our redeemer,
you have delivered us from the power of darkness
and brought us into the kingdom of your Son:
grant, that as by his death he has recalled us to life,
so by his continual presence in us he may raise us to eternal joy;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. Amen.
First Reading – Acts 10.44–48
While Peter was speaking, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard the word. The
circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astounded that the gift of the
Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles, for they heard them speaking
in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter said, ‘Can anyone withhold the water for
baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?’ So he
ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they invited him to
stay for several days.
Second Reading – 1 John 5.1-6*
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone
who loves the parent loves the child. By this we know that we love the children of
God, when we love God and obey his commandments. For the love of God is this,
that we obey his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome, for
whatever is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers
the world, our faith. Who is it that conquers the world but the one who believes
that Jesus is the Son of God? This is the one who came by water and blood, Jesus
Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is
the one that testifies, for the Spirit is the truth.
Gospel – John 15.9-17
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in
my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept
my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. I have said these things to you so
that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete. ‘This is my
commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater
love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do
what I command you. I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does
not know what the master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have
made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father. You did not
choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will
4
last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name. I am giving
you these commands so that you may love one another.’
Post Communion Prayer**
God our Father,
whose Son Jesus Christ gives the water of eternal life:
may we thirst for you,
the spring of life and source of goodness,
through him who is alive and reigns, now and for ever. Amen.
