  Cornerstone\n\n1st Reading 	Acts 1: 12 – 14       \n\nAfter Jesus was t
 aken up into heaven the Apostles returned to Jerusalem from the mount call
 ed Olivet\, which is near Jerusalem\, a Sabbath day’s journey away. And 
 when they had entered\, they went up to the upper room\, where they were s
 taying\, Peter and John and James and Andrew\, Philip and Thomas\, Barthol
 omew and Matthew\, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot and Juda
 s the son of James. All these with one accord were devoting themselves to 
 prayer\, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus\, and his br
 others and sisters.\n\n\nPsalm 27 - Response – “Alleluia\, Alleluia”
 \n\n\n2nd Reading	1 Peter 4: 13 – 16      \n\nBeloved: Rejoice insofar a
 s you share Christ’s sufferings\, that you may also rejoice and be glad 
 when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ\, y
 ou are blessed\, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. Bu
 t let none of you suffer as a murderer\, or a thief\, or an evildoer\, or 
 as a meddler. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian\, let him not be ashame
 d\, but let him glorify God in that name.\n\n\nGospel	John 17: 1 – 11a  
       \n\nAt that time: Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven\, and said\, 
 ‘Father\, the hour has come\; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify 
 you\, since you have given him authority over all flesh\, to give eternal 
 life to all whom you have given him. And this is eternal life\, that they 
 know you\, the only true God\, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. I glor
 ified you on earth\, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. 
 And now\, Father\, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I h
 ad with you before the world existed.\n\nI have manifested your name to th
 e people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were\, and you gave
  them to me\, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything 
 that you have given me is from you. For I have given them the words that y
 ou gave me\, and they have received them and have come to know in truth th
 at I came from you\; and they have believed that you sent me. I am praying
  for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have give
 n me\, for they are yours. All mine are yours\, and yours are mine\, and I
  am glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world\, but they are in t
 he world\, and I am coming to you.’\n\nNOTICES\nWednesday 20th May 11:00
