		<description><![CDATA[Preacher Revd Dr Pauline Stewart, Feast of St Luke the Evangelist.

October 18th 2009       Luke 10 : 1-9

In today’s gospel reading we hear of Jesus sending 70 disciples (some texts say 72) ahead of him to prepare the people for his coming and to give the message of God’s power and love.

These disciples were sent out in pairs to undertake their missionary work. They were to travel light. They were to get on with the task of spreading the good news, by the work they did and  by the message they gave that God’s kingdom was right on their doorstep. They were to stay in one place taking the meals that were offered.

The disciples returned to Jesus with “joy” sometime later to report the success of their mission. If we had continued the reading we would have heard that Jesus gathered his disciples and said privately to them “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it”.
