Because my Lord lives, I can face tomorrow! No truer words have been said or sung. For He died for my sins and conquered death; so that I may live. A life of holiness and fullness in Him. That I may freely choose to turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospels.

Such is the good news I’ve received and I now share, so that others too might have new life in Him. And together we give testimony to our living God; of how His love and mercy has filled our lives and transformed us. How we now live in peace and joy in Him.

Lord Jesus I want to die each day to myself, so that I may rise to new life in You. Help me to overcome all that prevents me from doing so. In Your most precious name I pray. Amen

FIRST READING
1 Corinthians 15:12–20

GOSPEL
Luke 8:1–3

Jesus journeyed from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God. Accompanying him were the Twelve and some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, Joanna, the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza, Susanna, and many others who provided for them out of their resources.
