Amen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Office Readings For Year 1<\/strong><br \/>\nA Reading from the Book of Jeremiah<br \/>\nThe word of the Lord came to me, saying, \u201cJeremiah, what do you see?\u201d And I said, \u201cI see a rod of almond.\u201d Then the Lord said to me, \u201cYou have seen well, for I am watching over my word to perform it.\u201d The word of the Lord came to me a second time, saying, \u201cWhat do you see?\u201d And I said, \u201cI see a boiling pot, facing away from the north.\u201d Then the Lord said to me, \u201cOut of the north evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land. For, lo, I am calling all the tribes of the kingdoms of the north, says the Lord; and they shall come and every one shall set his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, against all its walls round about, and against all the cities of Judah. And I will utter my judgments against them, for all their wickedness in forsaking me; they have burned incense to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands. But you, gird up your loins; arise, and say to them everything that I command you. Do not be dismayed by them, lest I dismay you before them. And I, behold, I make you this day a fortified city, an iron pillar, and bronze walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, its princes, its priests, and the people of the land. They will fight against you; but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you, says the Lord, to deliver you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A Reading from the Letter of Paul to the Romans<br \/>\nPaul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures, the gospel concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh and designated Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations, including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus Christ; To all God\u2019s beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God\u2019s will I may now at last succeed in coming to you. For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you, that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other&#8217;s faith, both yours and mine. I want you to know, brethren, that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles. I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish: so I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.<\/p>\n<p>A Reading from the Gospel according to John<br \/>\nJust then Jesus\u2019 disciples came. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but none said, \u201cWhat do you wish?\u201d or, \u201cWhy are you talking with her?\u201d So the woman left her water jar, and went away into the city, and said to the people, \u201cCome, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?\u201d They went out of the city and were coming to him. Meanwhile the disciples besought him, saying, \u201cRabbi, eat.\u201d But he said to them, \u201cI have food to eat of which you do not know.\u201d So the disciples said to one another, \u201cHas any one brought him food?\u201d Jesus said to them, \u201cMy food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work. Do you not say, \u2018There are yet four months, then comes the harvest\u2019? I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see how the fields are already white for harvest. He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together. For here the saying holds true, \u2018One sows and another reaps.\u2019 I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.\u201d Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman\u2019s testimony, \u201cHe told me all that I ever did.\u201d So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days. And many more believed because of his word. They said to the woman, \u201cIt is no longer because of your words that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coming Events at Good Shepherd<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sundays in Lent<\/strong><br \/>\n5:00 PM Stations of the Cross (5PM Saturday)<br \/>\n7:40 AM Morning Prayer<br \/>\n8:00 AM Said Holy Eucharist<br \/>\n10:00 AM Sung Holy Eucharist<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tuesdays through Fridays\u00a0in Lent<\/strong><br \/>\n8:30 AM Morning Prayer (unless otherwise announced)<\/p>\n<p><strong>March 19, Tuesday,\u00a0St. Joseph\u2019s\u00a0Day<\/strong><br \/>\n6:00 PM Said\u00a0Holy Eucharist<\/p>\n<p><strong>March 24, Tuesday, Eve of the Annunciation<\/strong><br \/>\n6:00 PM Sung Holy Eucharist<br \/>\n7:00 PM BREAK THE FAST with Stews &amp;
