Scripture Reading for this Sunday

Luke 10:25-37 (New Revised Standard Version)

Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he said, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” He said to him, “What is written in the law? What do you read there?” He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.” And he said to him, “You have given the right answer; do this, and you will live.”

But wanting to justify himself, he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan while traveling came near him; and when he saw him, he was moved with pity. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, having poured oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, ‘Take care of him; and when I come back, I will repay you whatever more you spend.’

”Which of these three, do you think, was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of the robbers?” He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

Incentive Cards for

Hopewell Middle School

Continuing our focus on our neighborhood schools children, we are seeking your support once again to help fund gift cards to be used as student incentives by the principals and counselors at Hopewell Middle School.

To "jolt" your memory, we donate a $5 gift card to Hopewell Middle School and they, in turn, let the students earn the card with good behavior and improvement. This incentive program works very well, so we are asking you to donate as many $5's as you feel you can, to supplement the budgeted funds for this semi-annual project. We will take the donations, buy the gift cards, and deliver them to the principals/counselors. If you are so moved, please make your checks out to RRCC or use the online payment method and write "Hopewell gift cards" in the memo line. Voila, you have helped a student in his or her success! Feels good, doesn't it?

Please place your offering indicating "Hopewell" or “gift card” in the collection plate on Sunday, through the mail, or via the online payment portal. Thank you for your generous support in this project serving our mission, "Embracing Our Neighborhoods with Christ-Like Love!"

Please bring your donations on 3/6 or 3/13 so that they can be purchased and delivered to the school prior to Spring Break!

Thanks, so much, for your support of our local schools!
