Communion Music: "Pastorale"…………………………………….Antonio Vivaldi

Silent Procession. After the altar party arrives at the altar, the officiant says the following sentence.

If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us, but if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:8,9

CONFESSION OF SIN

Officiant: Dearly beloved, we have come together in the presence of Almighty God our heavenly Father, to set forth his praise, to hear his holy Word, and to ask, for ourselves and on behalf of others, those things that are necessary for our life and our salvation. And so that we may prepare ourselves in heart and mind to worship him, let us kneel in silence, and with penitent and obedient hearts confess our sins, that we may obtain forgiveness by his infinite goodness and mercy. Let us confess our sins against God and our neighbor. Silence may be kept. Officiant and People together, all kneeling: 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.

THE INVITATORY AND PSALTER

All stand

Officiant: Lord, open our lips. People: And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.

Officiant and People:

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.

Officiant: The Lord is full of compassion and mercy People: Come let us adore him.

THE EUCHARISTIC PRAYER A………………………………………………...P. 361, BCP

Sanctus, S-124

The Lord’s Prayer, S-119

The Collect of The Day Almighty God, you know that we have no power in ourselves to help ourselves: Keep us both outwardly in our bodies and inwardly in our souls, that we may be defended from all adversities which may happen to the body, and from all evil thoughts which may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

A Prayer for Mission

Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.

A Prayer of St. Chrysostom

Almighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen.

THE HOLY COMMUNION THE OFFERTORY

Choral Anthem: "God so loved the world"……………….……….Noel Goemanne

God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that those who believe in him shall never die but have eternal life.

(John 3:16)

From Psalm 19 (Please join the cantor in singing the Antiphon)

The First Lesson……………………….………..…................….………..Exodus 20:1-17

Then God spoke all these words: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; you shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me, but showing steadfast love to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments. You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not acquit anyone who misuses his name. Remember the sabbath day, and keep it holy. For six days you shall labour and do all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God; you shall not do any work — you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and consecrated it. Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.

Gospel Acclamation

The Gospel………………………...............……......................…..…………..John 2:13-22

The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. He told those who were selling the doves, "Take these things out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!" His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me." The Jews then said to him, "What sign can you show us for doing this?" Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." The Jews then said, "This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and will you raise it up in three days?" But he was speaking of the temple of his body. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.

Sermon…………………………………...……..…………...The Rev. Gary B. Manning

The Apostles’ Creed

Officiant and People together, all standing I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

LENTEN PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE O Lord, you are the God of compassion and mercy; We give thanks to you and call upon your Name. We pray for the Church throughout the world; That we will be the body and blood of Christ to every people and nation. We pray for those who bear the authority of government, and make decisions which impact millions of lives—particularly Donald our president and Scott our governor. That they will be committed to justice and peace; and work tirelessly for the alleviation of hunger and misery. We pray for a renewed awareness of the beauty of this Earth; That we will be good stewards of Earth's resources. We give thanks for those parishioners celebrating birthdays this week, especially… We give thanks for those parishioners celebrating anniversaries this week, especially… We pray for those experiencing loss or crisis in their lives; That they may experience healing and wholeness through God's grace and our care. We pray for those who have died; That they may walk forever in the presence of God. Following a time of silence, the Celebrant and People say together: O God of love, you are the true Sun of the world, evermore risen and never going down; We pray to you to shine in our hearts and drive away the darkness of sin and the mist of error. We pray that we may, this day and all our life long, walk without stumbling in the way you have prepared for us, which is Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God in glory everlasting. Amen.

Rector's Daily Audio Diary - Every day during the Lenten Season, Gary Manning is offering a brief meditation on some aspect of the Gospel reading assigned for the day. The link to these daily audio meditations are posted by 9 am on Gary's blog (www.soulwerker.com), his Twitter account and on the Trinity Church Facebook page. These daily reflections will continue until Easter Day, April 1.

Have you ever wished to deepen your relationship with God? To experience a warm friendship with God? Maybe even fall in love with God – again – or for the very first time? The Brothers of SSJE and the Center for the Ministry of Teaching at VTS have put together a 6 week Lenten offering of prayer and reflection. A limited number of booklets are available in the narthex. If more are needed, you can down load one from SSJE.org or contact Betsy Jeffery or Barb Neils. Listen to the Presiding Bishop’s invitation to this practice http://meetingjesusinjohn.org/
