Gospel Reflection
A grain of wheat is a solitary grain
till it falls to the ground and dies.
A grain of wheat is a solitary grain,
but dead it bears a mighty harvest.
Look on Jesus, lifted up,
lifted high to redeem the world.
Gospel Reading - Jesus at the Festival of Tabernacles

2 But soon it was time for the Tabernacle Ceremonies, one of the annual Jewish holidays, 3and Jesus’ brothers urged him to go to Judea for the celebration.

14Then, midway through the festival, Jesus went up to the Temple and preached openly. 15The Jewish leaders were surprised when they heard him. “How can he know so much when he’s never been to our schools?” they asked.
16So Jesus told them, “I’m not teaching you my own thoughts, but those of God who sent me.
. . . . .John 7:2-3,14-16The Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
