All Hallows Evening Prayer for Sunday Evening (May 2, 2021) Is Now Online.

All Hallows Evening Prayer is a service of worship in the evening for all pilgrims on the journey to the heavenly city.

In Kentucky I live maybe an hour’s drive from the nearest vineyard. It is in the neighboring state of Tennessee. The apostles lived in a part of the ancient world where vineyards were common. In their travels they would have frequently passed a vineyard. I imagine as they walked past the vines or saw the smoke rising from the burning discarded branches, they must have heard Jesus’ voice again, “I am the true vine….” If they did not hear his voice with their ears, they heard it with their hearts, “I am the vine and you are the branches….”

The Scripture reading for this Sunday evening is John 5: 1-8 Jesus the True Vine.

The homily is titled, “Faithful Branches, Fruitful Branches”

The dismissal song is Steven C. Warner’s “I Am the Vine.” Arranged by Karen Schneider Kerner for SATB voices, cantor, assembly, keyboard, and guitar, a PDF of the song is available from GIA Publications.
