Welcome Made Real | June 28, 2026

What does it mean to welcome others? In this Sunday's brief Gospel reading from Matthew 10, Jesus tells us that when we offer even a cup of cold water to welcome someone, we are really welcoming him. Welcoming our neighbors means seeing them in their full humanity, as beloved children of God. As members of the body of Christ, we share the welcome of grace which we ourselves have received through Jesus.

Today's Scripture readings are Romans 6:12-23, Psalm 146, and Matthew 10:40-42.
