St. Edward’s Episcopal Church

The Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany

February 10, 2019

Holy Eucharist, Rite II

8:00 AM & 10:30 AM

Welcome to St. Edward’s Episcopal Church – established in 1968. This leaflet is your guide to the liturgy and is a resource for the material needed for this service. You will find three books in the pew rack in front of you - The 1979 Book of Common Prayer (red book), The Hymnal 1982 (blue book) and LEVAS (Lift Every Voice and Sing II - black and red cover). Hymn numbers preceded by ‘S’ are from the Service Music at the front of the Hymnal 1982. It is customary to stand during the singing of hymns, unless otherwise directed. It is perfectly appropriate to either stand, sit, or kneel for prayers. If you are visiting with us today, please be sure to fill out a Visitor Card (found in the pew in front of you) and give it to one of our ushers. We are blessed that you are here, and we look forward to meeting you!

OUR VISION: St. Edward's will be a strong, energetic, diverse, and giving church. We will serve Jesus through care for the stranger, the community, and ourselves as we demonstrate our faith through our actions. OUR MISSION: The Mission of Saint Edward's is to empower discipleship in Christ through worship, Christian education, music, community activities, and stewardship through the love of Christ.

Collect of the Day

Priest The Lord be with you.

People And also with you.

Priest Let us pray.

Set us free, O God, from the bondage of our sins, and give us the liberty of

that abundant life which you have made known to us in your Son our Savior

Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Collect for Absalom Jones

Set us free, heavenly Father, from every bond of prejudice and fear; that,

honoring the steadfast courage of your servant Absalom Jones, we may show

forth in our lives the reconciling love and true freedom of the children of

God, which you have given us in your Son our Savior Jesus Christ; who

lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

Amen.

Collect for the Parish

Our loving and heavenly Father, please pour down your Holy Spirit upon

this parish, and grant us a new vision of your glory, a new experience of

your power, a new faithfulness to your Word, a new consecration to your

service, so that, through our renewed witness, your Holy name may be

glorified and your kingdom advanced; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

The Lesson Please be seated. Isaiah 6:1-8

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high

and lofty; and the hem of his robe filled the temple. Seraphs were in

attendance above him; each had six wings: with two they covered their faces,

and with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. And one called

to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth

is full of his glory." The pivots on the thresholds shook at the voices of those

4

who called, and the house filled with smoke. And I said: "Woe is me! I am

lost, for I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean

lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!" Then one of the

seraphs flew to me, holding a live coal that had been taken from the altar

with a pair of tongs. The seraph touched my mouth with it and said: "Now

that this has touched your lips, your guilt has departed and your sin is blotted

out." Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and

who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I; send me!"

Lector The Word of the Lord.

People Thanks be to God.

Psalm 138 The People read responsively as indicated below. (At 10:30 ALL sing the REFRAIN.)

1 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, with my whole heart; *

before the gods I will sing your praise.

2 I will bow down toward your holy temple

and praise your Name, *

because of your love and faithfulness;

3 For you have glorified your Name *

and your word above all things.

REFRAIN

4 When I called, you answered me; *

you increased my strength within me.

5 All the kings of the earth will praise you, O Lord, *

when they have heard the words of your mouth.

5

6 They will sing of the ways of the Lord, *

that great is the glory of the Lord.

REFRAIN

7 Though the Lord be high, he cares for the lowly; *

he perceives the haughty from afar.

8 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you keep me safe; *

you stretch forth your hand against the fury of my enemies;

your right hand shall save me.

9 The Lord will make good his purpose for me; *

O Lord, your love endures for ever;

do not abandon the works of your hands.

REFRAIN

The Epistle 1 Corinthians 15:1-11

I would remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good news that I proclaimed

to you, which you in turn received, in which also you stand, through which

also you are being saved, if you hold firmly to the message that I proclaimed

to you--unless you have come to believe in vain. For I handed on to you as

of first importance what I in turn had received: that Christ died for our sins

in accordance with the scriptures, and that he was buried, and that he was

raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, and that he

appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five

hundred brothers and sisters at one time, most of whom are still alive, though

some have died. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of

all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. For I am the least of the

apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of

God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me has

not been in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them--though

it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. Whether then it was I or

they, so we proclaim and so you have come to believe.

Lector The Word of the Lord.

People Thanks be to God.

The Sequence (8:00) Instrumental The Sequence (10:30) Please stand. Come, thou fount Hymn 686

The Gospel Please stand. Luke 5:1-11 Gospeler The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke.

People Glory to You, Lord Christ.

Once while Jesus was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd

was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he saw two boats there at

the shore of the lake; the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing

their nets. He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and

asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then he sat down and taught

the crowds from the boat. When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon,

"Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch." Simon

answered, "Master, we have worked all night long but have caught nothing.

Yet if you say so, I will let down the nets." When they had done this, they

caught so many fish that their nets were beginning to break. So they signaled

their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and

filled both boats, so that they began to sink. But when Simon Peter saw it,

he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Go away from me, Lord, for I am a

sinful man!" For he and all who were with him were amazed at the catch of

fish that they had taken; and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee,

who were partners with Simon. Then Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid;

from now on you will be catching people." When they had brought their

boats to shore, they left everything and followed him.

Gospeler This is the Gospel of the Lord.

People Praise to You, Lord Christ.
