Program for Sunday, July 10 TONE II Second Sunday of Transfiguration

Sunday's Bible Reading   Isa. 3:16-4:1, I Cor. 1:25-30, Matt. 18:10-14   The Gospel Take care that you do not despise one of these little ones; for, I tell you, in heaven their angels continually see the face of my Father in heaven. What do you think? If a shepherd has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray? And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray. So it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should be lost.
