Psalm 130 / Ezekiel 37:1-14 / Romans 8:6-11 / John 11:1-45
God of Life, come from the four winds and breathe your breath of life into our dry bones. Fill us with your Holy Spirit that we may know you. Unbind all that keeps us dead inside, so that we may be alive to your covenant of love and grace. With Jesus we pray. Amen.
Psalm 33:4-5,17-21 / Acts 2:36-41 / John 20:11-18
O God, even the tombs of death cannot contain the life and love you give us. May we, like Mary, look into the dark and painful places of the world and see your light. May we too know your Risen Hope in our midst.
With Jesus we pray. Amen.
Psalm 16 / Acts 2:14a,22-32 / 1 Peter 1:3-9 / John 20:19-31
Blessed are you, O God, for you give us Jesus, pattern for our life in you. Call us to listen to your heart. Reveal yourself in our midst. Open the closed doors of our hearts and minds, so that we, unlike Thomas, can believe without seeing or touching and can say “My Lord and My God”. With Jesus we pray, Amen.
