The Fourth Sunday Of Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday)

The Fourth Sunday Of Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday)

O God, whose Son Jesus is the good shepherd of thy people; Grant that when we hear his voice we may know him who calleth us each by name, and follow where he doth lead; who, with thee and the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

At Sunday Evensongs, the clergy of Saint Thomas take up the Apostles’ Creed, line by line, in a fifteen part sermon series which continues this week and concludes next week. This evening’s sermon is “the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins.” See the complete list of sermons in the series here.
