Scripture Reading
Matthew 5:14-16 - “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”

Message: Love By Doing
What can I do for my neighbors?
St. Francis - “All the brothers should preach with their deeds.”
Matthew 5:16 - In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Love by doing; Love in deed; Love with good works
Video - “Living Out Her Faith”
Action Step
James 2:14-17 - What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
With The Lord Begin Your Task
With the Lord begin Your task
Jesus will direct it
For His aid and counsel ask
Jesus will perfect it
Every morn with Jesus rise
And when day is ended
In His name then close your eyes
Be to Him commended
Let each day begin with prayer
Praise and adoration
On the Lord cast every care
He is your salvation
Morning evening and at night
Jesus will be near you
Save you from the tempters might
With His presence cheer you
With your Savior at your side
Foes need not alarm you
In His promises confide
And no ill can harm you
All your trust and hope repose
In the mighty Master
Who in wisdom truly knows
How to stem disaster
If your task be thus begun
With the Saviors blessing
Safely then your course will run
Toward the promise pressing
Good will follow everywhere
While you here must wander
You at last the joy will share
In the mansions yonder
