Liturgy Of The Word
Reading
A reading from the letter of St . Paul to the Ephesians Eliza
Blessed be God , the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ , who has blessed us with the spiritual blessings in Christ .
Before the world was made , he chose us , chose us in Christ to be holy and spotless , and to live through love in his presence , determining that we should become his adopted sons , through Jesus Christ for his own kind purposes .
The Word of the Lord . All : Thanks be to God .
