Scripture and Announcements

Seventh Sunday of Easter

https://windermereunion.org/

John 17:6-19 NIV

Jesus Prays for His Disciples

6 “I have revealed you[a] to those whom you gave me out of the world. They

were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. 7 Now

they know that everything you have given me comes from you. 8 For I gave

them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with cer-

tainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. 9 I pray for

them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for

they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has

come to me through them. 11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they

are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by

the power of [b] your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one

as we are one. 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them

safe by[c] that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed

to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.

13 “I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the

world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them. 14 I

have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of

the world any more than I am of the world. 15 My prayer is not that you take

them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. 16 They

are not of the world, even as I am not of it. 17 Sanctify them by[d] the truth;

your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into

the world. 19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly

sanctified.

Build My Life Chorus

Alleluia, Gracious Jesus

It Alleluia! Gracious Jesus! Yours the scepter, yours the throne!

Alleluia! Yours the triumph, yours the victory alone!

Hark! The songs of peaceful Zion thunder like a mighty flood;

Jesus, out of every nation you’ve redeemed us by your blood.

Alleluia! Not as orphans are we left in sorrow now.

Alleluia! You are near us; faith believes, nor questions how.

Though the cloud from sight received

you when the forty days were o’er,

shall our hearts forget your promise, “I am with you ever more.”

Alleluia! Bread of angels you on earth our food, our stay.

Alleluia! Here the sinful flee to you from day to day.

Intercessor, friend of sinners, earth’s

Redeemer, plead for me, and the songs that sound in heaven

will repeat your gracious plea.

Alleluia! Christ eternal, nothing can disrupt your reign;

Alleluia! Born of Mary, heaven and earth are your domain.

Human life you fully entered, tending those we count the least,

serving both as Priest and Victim in the Eucharistic feast.
