Romans 15:1-7 (Epistle)1 W e then who are strong ought to bear with the scruples of t he weak, and not t o please ourselves. 2 Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification. 3 For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, “The r eproaches of those who reproached Y ou fell on Me.” 4 For whatever things were written befor e were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. 5 Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-mi nded toward one another , according to Christ Jesus, 6 that you may wi th one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lor d Jesus Christ. 7 Therefore receive one another , just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. Matthew 9:27-35 (Gospel)27 When Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out and saying, “Son of David, have mercy on us!” 28 And when He had come into the house, t he blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to t hem, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to Him, “Y es, Lord.” 29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According t o your f aith let it be to you.” 30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus s ternly warned them, saying, “See that no one knows it.” 31 But when they had departed, they spread the news about Him in all that country . 32 As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a man, mute and demon-possessed. 33 And when the demon was cast out, the mute spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, “It was never seen like this in Israel!” Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church 44 Benzinger St, Buffalo, NY 14206 http://www.peterandpauloca.com/ (716) 893 0044 -office (716) 220 8724 - Fr.
