LIVING GRACE LUTHERAN CHURCH
WELCOMES YOU
ALL SUNDAY SERVICES AT 9:30 AM
THE SECOND SUNDAY IN LENT
SUNDAY, 1 MARCH 2026
First Reading: Genesis 12:1-4a
God’s call of Abram and Sarai has a clear purpose—that through them all the families of the earth would gain a blessing. As they set out on their journey, they are accompanied by promises of land, nation, and a great reputation.
Psalm: Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the hills; my help comes from the Lord. (Ps. 121:1, 2)
Second Reading: Romans 4:1-5, 13-17
In the person and example of Abraham we discover that a right relationship with God does not involve earning a reward from God but entails trusting God’s promises. Abraham is the forebear and model for both Jews and Gentiles, because we too trust that ours is a God who gives life to the dead.
Gospel: John 3:1-17
A curious Pharisee visits Jesus by night to learn from the teacher his friends reject. Jesus speaks to him about life in the Spirit and the kingdom of God.
