Epistle Reflection
E te whānau,
let us love one another,
because love is from God.
New Testament Reading - A Christian community

32All the believers were of one heart and mind, and no one felt that what he owned was his own; everyone was sharing. 33And the apostles preached powerful sermons about the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and there was warm fellowship among all the believers,a 34-35and no poverty — for all who owned land or houses sold them and brought the money to the apostles to give to others in need.
. . . . . Acts 4:32-35- Literally, “great grace was upon them all.”
