John 17:6-21a
Our scripture
from John’s gospel is Jesus’ prayer for his disciples (and those who will come
after them) in John’s telling of the Last Supper. In this prayer, Jesus
asks God to protect them, to give them the words they need and great joy,
and to send them out—in the hopes that all may be one. Jesus has done all
he can do to prepare them. Now the work is in their (our) hands. . . .
