Today’s Charities : Priya Mobach, a member of our congregation, runs her own charity "Kids in Sri Lanka" to help the less fortunate kids of Sri Lanka. They help with the kids' education and other needs so that they have a better tomorrow. Congregation member Xander v Asperen is personally involved with the charity "Steunfonds vieringen zorgcentra". The Sunday services in de zorgcentra are ecumenical and used to be paid for by the zorgcentra but contributions have now been reduced or stopped. The congregations are mixed also. Xander is one of the people who are desperately trying to keep the services in the zorgcentra running. For more information please talk to Xander.

The Twenty Second Sunday after Trinity

1030 October 28 AD 2018

Parable of the unforgiving servant, Domenico Fetti, 1620.

In anger his master delivered him to the jailers,until he should pay all his debt.

So also my heavenly Father will doto every one of you,

if you do not forgive your brotherfrom your heart.”

MATTHEW 18:34-35The Twenty Second Sunday after

Trinity

Today our worship will be led by the Reverend Guy Diakiese, assistant curate at the Church of St. John and St. Philip in The Hague.

Opening hymn:  543 O praise ye the Lord! 

The Collect:  O Almighty and most merciful God, of your bountiful goodness keep us, we beseech you, from all things that may hurt us; that we, being ready both in body and soul, may cheerfully accomplish those things that you wouldest have done; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

First reading: Genesis 45.1-7,15

Psalm 133

BEHOLD, how good and joyful a ’ thing it ’ is : brethren to ’ dwell to’gether in ’ unity!2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down ’ unto the ’ beard : even unto Aaron's beard, and went ’ down to the ’ skirts of his ’ clothing.3 Like as the ’ dew of ’ Hermon : which fell up’on the ’ hill of ’ Sion.4 For there the Lord ’ promised his ’ blessing : and ’ life for ’ ever’more.Glory be to the Father ’ and to • the ’ Son : and ’ to the ’ Holy ’ Ghost;As it was in the beginning is ’ now and • ever ’ shall be : world without ’ end. A ’ — ’ men.

New Testament Lesson: Philippians 1:3-11I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. It is right for me to feel this way about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel. For God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus. And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. This is the word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

Gradual Hymn: 428 Forgive our sins as we forgive

Gospel Acclamation:Alleluia (x4) Speak Lord for your servant ’ is ’ listening.You have the words ’ of e- • ternal ’ life.Alleluia  (x4)

The Gospel: Matthew 18:21-35Gospel is announced, we respond: Glory to you, O Lord

Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times. “Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. When he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.

-3-

And since he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’ And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt. But when that same servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii, and seizing him, he began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay what you owe.’ So his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you.’ He refused and went and put him in prison until he should pay the debt. When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their master all that had taken place. Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt. So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”After the Gospel is read we say: Praise to you, O ChristSermon
