Psalm 78
Hear the stories of God; pass them to all even children;
They will hear and trust in God; There are plenty that do not
follow God but like the Exodus - God will provide; he fed them;
God forgave them many times for they were just human.
1 Timothy 2
Prayers and supplications be made to everyone including leaders;
Jesus gave himself for all at the right time so all might be saved.

Matthew 13
Jesus explains the sower parable to the disciples - the word of God -
Seed on path = Lack of understanding; rocks = hear the word with joy
but it does not take root they fall away at the first time of trouble;
Thorns - lets the worries and concerns of the world take over; the seed falling on good soil yields much.

Prayers and Intercessions
Collect of the Day | Easter 6
O God, you have prepared for those who love you such
good things as surpass our understanding: Pour into our
hearts such love towards you, that we, loving you in all
things and above all things, may obtain your promises,
which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ
our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever. Amen.

For All Sorts and Conditions
O God, the creator and preserver of all, we humbly beseech you for all sorts and conditions of people; that you would be pleased to make your ways known unto them, your saving health unto all nations. More especially we pray for your holy Church universal; that it may be so guided and governed by your good Spirit, that all who profess and call themselves Christians may be led into the way of truth, and hold the faith in unity of spirit, in the bond of peace, and in righteousness of life. Finally, we commend to your fatherly goodness all those who are in any ways afflicted or distressed, in mind, body, or estate; that it may please you to comfort and relieve them according to their several necessities, giving them patience under their sufferings, and a happy issue out of all their afflictions. And this we beg for Jesus Christ's sake. Amen.

+++
Glory to God whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than
we can ask or imagine: Glory to him from generation to generation in
the Church, and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen.     
Ephesians 3:20,21
