  6. Gathering Prayer Hymn: VU 244 “Sing Your Praise to God Eternal”

  7. Word Old Testament: Jeremiah 4:11-12, 22-28 The Word of God. Thanks be to God. Psalm of Confession (Psalms 14 & 53): VU p. 735

  8. Gospel: Luke 15:1-10 [read in Malayalam] Now all the tax-collectors and ‘sinners’ were coming near to listen to Jesus. And the Pharisees and the religious scholars were grumbling and saying, ‘This person welcomes sinners and eats with them.’ So Jesus told them this parable: ‘Who among you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and search for the lost one until it is found? And finding it, you put the sheep on your shoulders and rejoice. And once home, you invite friends and neighbours in, and say to them, “Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep.” Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need to repent. ‘Or what woman having ten silver coins, if she loses one of them, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbours, saying, “Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.” Just so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents. The Gospel of Christ. Praise to you, O Christ!
