Mark 12: 29-31

Jesus replied, 'This is the first: Listen, Israel,

the Lord our God is the one, only Lord,30 and you must love the Lord your God with all your heart,

with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your

strength.

31 The second is this: You must love your neighbor asyourself. There is no commandment greater than these.'

Word of lordLuke 10:25-37

25 And now a lawyer stood up and, to test him, asked, 'Master, what must Ido to inherit eternal life?'26 He said to him, 'What is written in the Law? What is your reading of it?'27 He replied, 'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with allyour soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and yourneighbour as yourself.'28 Jesus said to him, 'You have answered right, do this and life is yours.'29 But the man was anxious to justify himself and said to Jesus, 'And who ismy neighbour?'30 In answer Jesus said, 'A man was once on his way downfrom Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of bandits; they strippedhim, beat him and then made off, leaving him half dead.31 Now a priest happened to be travelling down the same road, but when hesaw the man, he passed by on the other side.

32 In the same way a Levite who came to the place saw him, and passed by on the other side.33 But a Samaritan traveler who came on him was moved withcompassion when he saw him.34 He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring oil and wine onthem. He then lifted him onto his own mount and took him to an inn andlooked after him.35 Next day, he took out two denarii and handed them to the innkeeperand said, "Look after him, and on my way back I will make good anyextra expense you have."

36 Which of these three, do you think, proved himself a neighbour tothe man who fell into the bandits' hands?'37 He replied, 'The one who showed pity towards him.' Jesus said tohim, 'Go, and do the same yourself.'

1 Corinthians 13:4-7NewInternational Version

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not

boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not

self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of

wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the

truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes,always perseveres.

Prayer of St Francis

"Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.Where there is hatred, let me sow love;Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is doubt, faith;Where there is despair, hope;Where there is darkness, light;Where there is sadness, joy.Where there is discort, unity;

O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek

To be consoled as to console,To be understood as to understand,To be loved as to love;For it is in giving that we receive;It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;It is in dying to self that we are born to eternal life
