TRINITY WORSHIP GUIDE: PENTECOST 2

TRINITY ANGLICAN CHURCH 10:30 WORSHIP GUIDE

PENTECOST 22 JUNE 2014

T R I N I T Y A N G L I C A N C H U R C H

Welcome Thank you for joining us today as we gather together to worship our Savior and King, Jesus. This service is a liturgical service, meaning the congregation is an active participant. Theologian James K.A. Smith writes, liturgy “shapes and constitutes our identity by forming our most basic attunement to the world... our ultimate love/desire is shaped by practices, not [only] ideas that are merely communicated to us.” So we orient our heart and mind through the rhythm of poetry, song, vows, music, bread and wine. And through that process, we immerse ourselves into the ancient story of the Christian faith.

In the liturgy, the congregation participates in the bold liturgy. During the Communion portion of our service, all baptized Christians are welcome to the Lord’s Table. Restrooms are located in the outside breezeway located next to the parking lot. At this time please silent your phones or noisemakers.

Preparation As we gather together into this sacred time, quietly consider anew the mystery of the Word becoming flesh and dwelling among us. Just as Jesus the Christ was present two thousand years ago walking with and among his people, so we believe that in the gathering together of God’s holy church, Jesus meets us here as our risen Lord and King.

The Prelude

The Processional “MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS” Author: Edward Mote (1834) Score: William B. Bradbury (1863)

1 My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' name.

Refrain: On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; all other ground is sinking sand; all other ground is sinking sand.

2 When darkness seems to hide his face, I rest on his unchanging grace; in every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]

3 His oath, his covenant, his blood support me in the whelming flood; when all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]

4 When he shall come with trumpet sound, O may I then in him be found, dressed in his righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain]

The Acclamation Celebrant Alleluia! Christ is risen! People The Lord is risen indeed! Alleluia!

The Collect for Purity Celebrant Let us pray.

Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Processional is the act of movement in worship by a group of people for the sake of all. In the Entrance, the procession symbolizes the entire congregation coming before the Lord.”


The Rector’s Welcome* At this time, children are invited to come forward to receive a blessing and then dismissed to Sunday School or Nursery.

The Summary of the Law Jesus said: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets. Matthew 22:37-‐40

Celebrant Lord, have mercy. People Christ, have mercy. Celebrant Lord, have mercy. The Gloria Glory to God in the highest, and peace to his people on earth. Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father, we worship you, we give you thanks, we praise you for your glory. Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, Lord God, Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us; you are seated at the right hand of the Father: receive our prayer. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

Praise Songs “O FOR A THOUSAND TONGUES TO SING” Author: Charles Wesley (1739) Tune: AZMON 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer's praise, the glories of my God and King, the triumphs of his grace!

2 My gracious Master and my God, assist me to proclaim, to spread thro' all the earth abroad the honors of your name.

4 He breaks the power of cancelled sin, he sets the prisoner free; his blood can make the foulest clean; his blood availed for me.

3 Jesus! the name that charms our fears, that bids our sorrows cease, 'tis music in the sinner's ears, 'tis life and health and peace.

5 To God all glory, praise, and love be now and ever given by saints below and saints above, the Church in earth and heaven.

“THERE IS NONE LIKE YOU” Author and Tune: Lenny Leblanc (1991) There is none like You, No one else can touch my heart like You do; I could search for all eternity long and find There is none like You. Your mercy flows like a river wide And healing comes from Your hands; Suffering children are safe in Your arms, There is none like You.

Why do we sing in church? As God's people gather for worship, we focus our attention on God and away from ourselves by singing together. We respond with thanksgiving to God, because we have hope. And we sing because it is the best and most complete response that we can utter.

The Collect of the Day Celebrant The Lord be with you. People And with your spirit. Celebrant Let us pray. O Lord, make us have perpetual love and reverence for your holy Name, for you never fail to help and govern those whom you have set upon the sure foundation of your loving-‐kindness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

People Amen!

The Ministry of the Word* After each Lesson, the Reader will say

Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.

First Lesson ....................................................... Isaiah 57:14-‐21

The Psalm ......................................................................................................... Psalm 141: 1-‐10

Read responsively by half-‐verse

1 O LORD, I am calling to you. Please hurry! Listen when I cry to you for help!

2 Accept my prayer as incense offered to you, and my upraised hands as an evening offering.

3 Take control of what I say, O LORD, and guard my lips.

4 Don’t let me drift toward evil or take part in acts of wickedness. Don’t let me share in the delicacies of those who do wrong.

5 Let the godly strike me! It will be a kindness! If they correct me, it is soothing medicine. Don’t let me refuse it. But I pray constantly against the wicked and their deeds.

As the Bible is the primary means by which God speaks to and edifies his people, we read and listen to the Scriptures together in worship. In ancient Israel and the early church, services of worship were organized for the public reading of scripture – a practice vital to building up the community of faith

2 2 J U N E 2 0 1 4

6 When their leaders are thrown down from a cliff, the wicked will listen to my words and find them true.

7 Like rocks brought up by a plow, the bones of the wicked will lie scattered without burial.

8 I look to you for help, O Sovereign LORD. You are my refuge; don’t let them kill me.

9 Keep me from the traps they have set for me, from the snares of those who do wrong.

10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, but let me escape.

“The Gloria Patri” Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Sequence Song or Hymn “SHOW ME YOUR WAYS”

Gospel Lesson Gospel Reading ........................................................................................................ John 8:1-‐11

Before the Gospel is read, the Reader will say

Reader The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John People Glory to you Lord Christ Reader The Gospel of the Lord. People Praise to you Lord Christ.


The Sermon* “Forgiven” The Rev. Jonathan G. Smith

Sermon Guide: John 8:1–11 (NLT) — 1 Jesus returned to the Mount of Olives, 2 but early the next morning he was back again at the Temple. A crowd soon gathered, and he sat down and taught them. 3 As he was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd. 4 “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?” 6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust. 9 When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?” 11 “No, Lord,” she said. And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.”

The Affirmation of Faith “The Nicene Creed”

We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, visible and invisible.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified who has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The Prayers of the People* A litany for healing

God is our hope and strength, a very present help in trouble. The eternal God is our refuge, and underneath are His everlasting arms. I will give thanks to You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will praise You for all Your marvelous works.

Great is our God and great is His power. Yes, and His wisdom is infinite.

He brings healing to those that are broken in heart; and gives medicine to heal their sickness.

In God is my health and my glory; in Him will I put my trust

When we affirm our faith together, it reminds us that we are part of an ancient and global faith. This was the last great creed of the undivided church. The Nicene Creed forms the great theology of the Holy Trinity, the great drama of redemption, and the hope of restoration from sin through faith in Jesus Christ.

Prayer is a vital act in Christian worship. To aid in preparing the congregation for prayer, the church developed litanies dating back to the early church of Antioch. A litany is a prayer form in which a minister says or sings a petition followed by a congregational response. Prayer doesn’t change God-‐ prayer changes us. Through prayer we are changed and transformed into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ. To pray means that we must be open and willing to change.

Put your trust in Him, all you people; pour out your hearts before Him. For God is our hope.

O Lord God of Hosts, blessed are those who put their trust in you. Glory to the Father and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and will be forever. Amen.

God the Father, Your will for all people is health and salvation.

We praise You and thank You, O Lord.

God the Son, You came that we might have life, and might have it more abundantly.


God the Holy Spirit, You make our bodies the temple of Your presence.


Lord, grant Your healing grace to all who are sick, injured, or disabled that they may be made whole.

Hear us, O Lord of Life.

Grant to all who seek your guidance, and to all who are lonely, anxious, or despondent, a knowledge of Your will and an awareness of Your presence.


Mend broken relationships, and restore those in emotional distress to soundness of mind and serenity of spirit.


Restore to wholeness whatever is broken by human sin, in our lives, in the world, and in Your Church.


Gives us grace to forgive those who have wounded our souls and spirits, isolating us from Your love and grace.


We pray for all Bishops, Priests, and Deacons that they may be faithful stewards of your liberating Gospel through Jesus Christ our Lord.

2 2 J U N E 2 0 1 4


You are the Lord who does wonders in our lives.

You have displayed Your power among us.

In you, O Lord, is the well of life.

And in Your light we see light.


Heal us and make us whole.

Let us continue to pray.

O God, our Father, whose life is around us and in us always, and who is the source of all health and healing, all strength and peace. Teach us to know You truly. Take from us all that hinders the work of Your healing power – all our sins, all anxieties and fears, all resentment and hardness of heart – and help us to learn to enter into stillness and peace before You and to know that You are our Healer and Redeemer, through Jesus Christ our Lord we pray.

Amen

Confession and Absolution* Minister All who truly and earnestly repent of your sins, and seek to be reconciled with your neighbors, and intend to lead the new life, following the commandments of God, and walking in his holy ways: draw near with faith and make your humble confession to Almighty God.

All Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.

Because sin is so pervasive in both our corporate and individual lives, Christians and non-‐Christians are called to come before the Father with honesty and transparency, confessing our brokenness in thought, word, and deed; and asking for both forgiveness and healing through Jesus Christ......

Because of this, when the liturgist proclaims that your sins are forgiven, you can know that Christ agrees.


Celebrant Almighty God, our heavenly Father, who in his great mercy has promised forgiveness of sins to all those, who sincerely repent and with true faith turn to him, have mercy upon you, pardon and deliver you from all your sins, confirm and strengthen you in all goodness, and bring you to everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Peace Celebrant The Peace of the Lord be always with you. People And with your spirit.

The Offering and Hymn “BE STILL”

1. Be still for the presence of the Lord The Holy One is here Come bow before Him now With reverence and fear In Him no sin is found We stand on Holy ground Be still for the presence of the Lord The Holy One is here.

3. Be still for the power of the Lord Is moving in this place He comes to cleanse and heal To minister His grace No work too hard for Him In faith receive from Him Be still for the power of the Lord Is moving in this place.

2. Be still for the glory of the Lord Is shining all around He burns with holy fire With splendor He is crowned How awesome is the sight Our radiant King of light Be still for the glory of the Lord Is shining all around.

The Great Thanksgiving “The Doxology”

Praise God from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him all creatures here below. Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise Him above ye heavenly host, Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Celebrant The Lord be with you. People And also with you Celebrant Lift up your hearts. People We lift them to the Lord. Celebrant Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. People It is just and right so to do. The Sursum Corda It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.

Through Jesus Christ our Lord; who on the first day of the week overcame death and the grave, and by his glorious resurrection opened to us the way of everlasting life.

Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who forever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name:

The Sanctus Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might, Holy, holy, holy, Lord, God of power and might. Heaven and earth are full, full of Your glory. Hosanna in the highest, Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. Hosanna in the highest.

“The Eucharist is the definitive action practiced in the Christian community that keeps Jesus Christ before us as the Savior of the world and our Savior, and ourselves as sinners in need of being saved. The Eucharist is the sacramental act that pulls us into actual material participation with Christ (eating and drinking bread and wine) as he gives his very life “for us and for our salvation” (cf., the Nicene Creed)... The Eucharist puts Jesus in his place: dying on the cross and giving us that sacrificed life. And it puts us in our place: opening our hands and receiving the remission of our sins, which is our salvation.”


The Prayer of Consecration Almighty God, our heavenly Father, in your tender mercy, you gave your only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the cross for our redemption. He offered himself and made, once for all time, a perfect and sufficient sacrifice for the sins of the whole world. He instituted this remembrance of his passion and death, which he commanded us to continue until he comes again. So now, Father, we ask you to bless and sanctify, with your Word and Holy Spirit, these gifts of bread and wine that we may partake of his most blessed Body and Blood.

On the night that he was betrayed, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take, eat; this is my Body which is given for you: Do this in remembrance of me.”

After supper, Jesus took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink this, all of you; for this is my Blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for you, and for many, for the forgiveness of sins: Whenever you drink it, do this in remembrance of me.”

The Proclamation Celebrant Therefore, we proclaim the mystery of faith: All Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.

Celebrant Lord and heavenly Father, with these holy gifts we celebrate the memorial instituted by your beloved Son, remembering his passion and death, his resurrection and ascension, and his promise to come again. Grant that by his merits and death, and through faith in his Blood, we and your whole Church may receive forgiveness of our sins and all other benefits of his passion, making us one body with him that he may dwell in us, and we in him. And here we offer to you, O Lord, ourselves, our souls and bodies, to be a living sacrifice, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

2 2 J U N E 2 0 1 4

The Great Amen Celebrant By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and forever. AMEN

The Lord’s Prayer Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as

it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread.

And forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial, and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever. Amen.

The Fraction Celebrant Alleluia. Christ our Passover Lamb has been sacrificed for us, once for all upon the

cross. People Therefore let us keep the feast. Alleluia.


The Prayer of Humble Access* We do not presume to come to this your table, merciful Lord, trusting in our own righteousness,

but in your abundant and great mercies. We are not worthy so much as to gather up the crumbs under your table. But you are the same

Lord, who always delights in showing mercy. Grant us, therefore, gracious Lord, so to eat the flesh of your dear Son Jesus Christ and to drink his

blood, that our sinful bodies may be made clean by his body, and our souls washed through his most precious blood, and that we may evermore dwell in him, and he in us. Amen.

The Ministry of Communion All Christians are welcome to receive communion. Note: Trinity Anglican Church uses real wine.

Communion Songs “I AM THE GOD THAT HEALETH THEE” Author: Don Moen (1986) 1. I am the God that healeth thee, I am the Lord, your Healer. I sent My Word and healed your disease, I am the Lord, your Healer.

2. You are the God that healeth me, You are the Lord, my Healer; You sent Your Word and healed my disease, You are the Lord my Healer.

“MY TRIBUTE” Author: Andre Crouch (1971) 1. To God be the glory, to God be the glory, to God be the glory for the things He has done.

2. With His blood He has saved me, with His power He has raised me; to God be the glory for the things He has done.

Post Communion Prayer Heavenly Father, we thank you for feeding us with the spiritual food of the most precious Body and Blood of your Son our Savior Jesus Christ; and for assuring us in these holy mysteries that we are living members of the Body of your Son, and heirs of your eternal kingdom. And now, Father, send us out into the world to do the work you have given us to do, to love and serve you as faithful witnesses of Christ our Lord. To him, to you, and to the Holy Spirit, be honor and glory, now and forever. Amen.

The Blessing of the Congregation The peace of God, which passes all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord; and the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, be among you, and remain with you always. Amen.

“The blessing is an authoritative declaration of God’s favor on the people. Like the Aaronic blessing of the Hebrew form (Num. 6:24–26), the Christian blessing proclaims God’s continued presence with the people of God’s name, ‘ (Phil. 4:7).”
