Trinity 20

Collect

Almighty God, whose Holy Spirit equips your Church with a rich variety of gifts: Grant us so to use them that, living the gospel of Christ and eager to do your will, we may share with the whole creation in the joys of eternal life; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

James 5:13 – 20

Mark 10: 17 – 31

It’s easier for a rope to go through the eye of a needle…
… than for the rich to get into God’s Kingdom
