WELCOME and RELATIONSHIPS of PEACE OPENING SONG “Beautiful Savior” OPENING LITURGY OLD TESTAMENT LESSON Genesis 49:1-2, 5-7 [NIV] 1 Then Jacob called for his sons and said: ―Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come. 2―Assemble and listen, sons of Jacob; listen to your father Israel. 5 ―Simeon and Levi are brothers—their swords are weapons of violence. 6Let me not enter their council, let me not join their assembly, for they have killed men in their anger and hamstrung oxen as they pleased. 7Cursed be their anger, so fierce, and their fury, so cruel! I will scatter them in Jacob and disperse them in Israel. P: This is the Word of the Lord. C: Thanks be to God! HOLY GOSPEL Mark 4:30-34 [NIV] 30 Again he said, ―What shall we say the kingdom of God is like, or what parable shall we use to describe it? 31It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds on earth. 32Yet when planted, it grows and becomes the largest of all garden plants, with such big branches that the birds can perch in its shade.‖ 33With many similar parables Jesus spoke the word to them, as much as they could understand. 34He did not say anything to them without using a parable. But when he was alone with his own disciples, he explained everything. P: This is the Gospel of the Lord. C: Thanks be to God!
