To order a wreath, please see Tom Tsirimokos or one of our Boy Scouts. Share your Christmas Joy while supporting our Scouts.
A Prayer for Veteran’s Day - Sunday, November 11, 2018
Let us pray to the Lord, Lord have Mercy. O God, we give you thanks
today for our nation’s veterans. We honor them for their faithful service
to our country, and for what they have done to defend and preserve
our freedom. Generation after generation, young men and women have
answered our country’s call, and their lives have been changed forever.
We are grateful to all who have served, whether in peacetime or in con-
flict. But today we especially remember those who have been tempered
by fire, those who continue to bear wounds of the body or the spirit as a
result of what they endured. They lie in our veterans’ hospitals or
struggle for recovery in rehabilitation centers; they suffer from post-
traumatic stress and survivor’ guilt; they yearn for peace in their souls.
O Lord, we ask you to heal their wounds, to banish whatever inner de-
mons may haunt them, and to give them peace within so they may re-
turn fully to their families and to society.
We thank you, O Lord, for all of our country’s veterans —those of past
generations, and those who continue to earn this title today. May we
never forget what our country has asked of them and what they have
given in return. Help us to give them the respect and honor they are
due. And strengthen our resolve to build a world modeled on your
realm, where war will be pursued no more. We pray this in Your Holy
Name, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and forever and unto the ages
of ages. Amen.

The Epistle Reading – Sunday, November 11, 2018
The reading is from the Second Epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians
(4:6-15).
Brethren, it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who
has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory
of God in the face of Christ.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the
transcendent power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in
every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;
persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always
carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may
also be manifested in our bodies. For while we live we are always
being given up to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may be
manifested in our mortal flesh. So death is at work in us, but life in you.
Since we have the same spirit of faith as he had who wrote, "I believed,
and so I spoke," we too believe, and so we speak, knowing that he who
raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus and bring us with
you into his presence. For it is all for your sake, so that as grace
extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the
glory of God.

The Gospel Lesson – Sunday, November 11, 2018
THE GOSPEL READING: EIGHTH SUNDAY OF LUKE
The reading is from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke (10:25-37).
At that time, a lawyer stood up to put Jesus to the test, saying,
"Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" He said to him, "What
is written in the law? How do you read?" And he answered, "You shall
love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and
with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as
yourself." And he said to him, "You have answered right; do this, and
you will live."
But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my
neighbor?" Jesus replied, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to
Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him,
and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going
down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.
So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed
by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where
he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him
and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on
his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the
next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper,
saying, `Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay
you when I come back.' Which of these three, do you think, proved
neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?" He said, "The one
who showed mercy on him." And Jesus said to him, "Go and do
likewise."
