Daily Reflection
St. John's Church, Lafayette Square

Dear St. John's Community,

You may view today's service now available at this link!

Today in the worship service we hear one of the most beautiful hymns both in melody and sentiment, "There's a Wideness in God's Mercy," with words by Frederick Faber and music by Calvin Hampton. The hymn speaks to the awe-inspiring nature of God's grace:

For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of the mind
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.

If our love were but more faithful,
We would take him at his word
And our lives would be thanksgiving
For the goodness of the Lord!
I wish you a grace-filled Sunday.

To watch the service in real time with others, tune in at 9am to watch live on our Facebook page.

God's peace,
