Sunday, June 30 — Lectionary 13
6th Sunday after Pentecost  

  • Lamentations 3:22-33
  • Wisdom 1:13-15; 2:23-24
  • Psalm 30
  • 2 Corinthians 8:7-15
  • Mark 5:21-43

A woman finds healing by touching Jesus’ cloak, and a girl is restored to life when he takes her by the hand. In both cases a boundary is crossed: in Jesus’ time the hemorrhaging woman was considered ritually unclean, polluting others by her touch, and anyone who touched a corpse also became unclean. In Mark’s gospel Jesus breaks down barriers, from his first meal at a tax collector’s house to his last breath on the cross as the temple curtain is torn in two. We dare to touch Jesus in our “uncleanness” and to live as a community that defines no one as an outsider.
