A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Ephesians 2:4-10 The foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom.

Brothers and sisters: God, who is rich in mercy, because of the great love he had for us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, brought us to life with Christ—by grace you have been saved —, raised us up with him, and seated us with him in the heavens in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not from you; it is the gift of God; it is not from works, so no one may boast. For we are his handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for the good works that God has prepared in advance, that we should live in them. Lector: The word of the Lord. AssemblyText: : Thanks be to God..

8 Choral Meditation Light Everlasting Olaf C. Christiansen (1908-1984) O light everlasting, O Love, never failing, Illumine our darkness and draw us to Thee. May we from the Spirit receive inspiration (O light everlasting) That brethren together Thy wisdom may see. Make known to all nations, Thy salvation! Thy peace and salvation. And help us, O Father, Thy temple to be. O light everlasting, O Love never failing, Illumine our darkness, and draw us to Thee.
