A Service of Holy Communion

from The Book of Common Prayer (BCP)

Greeting: The Lord be with you.

AND ALSO WITH YOU. (see Ruth 2:4)

Sentence: The Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his

life as a ransom for many. Mark 10.45

Prayer of Preparation:

Let us pray together: (the congregation kneel or sit)

ALMIGHTY God, unto whom all hearts be open, all

desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid;

Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy Holy Spirit,

that we may perfectly love thee, and worthily magnify thy holy Name;

through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Summary of the Commandments:

Priest: Our Lord Jesus Christ said: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord;

and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and

with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. This is the first commandment. And

the second is like, namely this: thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is

none other commandment greater than these. On these two commandments

hang all the Law and the Prophets.’

People: Lord, have mercy upon us, and write all these thy laws in our hearts,

we beseech thee.

Prayer of the Day

God of unchangeable power, when the heaven and earth were made, the

morning stars sang together and the host of heaven shouted for joy: open our

eyes to the wonders of creation and teach us to use all things for good, to the

honour of your glorious name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns

with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD

Readings from 'New Revised Standard Version' (NRSV)

First Reading: Job 38.1-7

Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind: 2 ‘Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?

3 Gird up your loins like a man,

I will question you, and you shall declare to me. 4 ‘Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?

Tell me, if you have understanding. 5 Who determined its measurements—surely you know!

Or who stretched the line upon it? 6 On what were its bases sunk,

or who laid its cornerstone 7 when the morning stars sang together

and all the heavenly beings shouted for joy?

Response: Hear the word of the Lord,

THANKS BE TO GOD

Psalm: 104:1-7, 26

1 Bless the Lord, O my soul:

O Lord my God, how great you are!

2 Clothed with majesty and honour:

wrapped in light as in a garment.

3 You have stretched out the heavens like a tent-cloth:

and laid the beams of your dwelling upon their waters;

4 You make the clouds your chariot:

and ride upon the wings of the wind;

5 You make the winds your messengers:

and flames of fire your ministers;

6 You have set the earth on its foundations:

so that it shall never be moved.

7 The deep covered it as with a mantle:

the waters stood above the hills.

26 Lord, how various are your works:

in wisdom you have made them all, and the earth is full of your creatures.

4

Second Reading: Hebrews 5.1-10

Every high priest chosen from among mortals is put in charge of things pertaining

to God on their behalf, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2He is able to deal

gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is subject to

weakness; 3and because of this he must offer sacrifice for his own sins as well as

for those of the people. 4And one does not presume to take this honour, but

takes it only when called by God, just as Aaron was. 5So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a high priest, but was

appointed by the one who said to him,

‘You are my Son,

today I have begotten you’; 6as he says also in another place,

‘You are a priest for ever,

according to the order of Melchizedek.’ 7In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud

cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was

heard because of his reverent submission. 8Although he was a Son, he learned

obedience through what he suffered; 9and having been made perfect, he

became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him, 10

having been

designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

Response: Hear the word of the Lord,

THANKS BE TO GOD

5

We stand for the reading of the Holy Gospel as a sign of respect as we greet

our Lord who is present in His Holy Word.

The Lord be with you

AND ALSO WITH YOU

The gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to Saint Mark chapter 10

beginning at the 35th

verse.

GLORY TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST.

James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came forward to him and said to him,

‘Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.’36

And he said to

them, ‘What is it you want me to do for you?’ 37

And they said to him, ‘Grant us

to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.’ 38

But Jesus said

to them, ‘You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup

that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?’ 39

They

replied, ‘We are able.’ Then Jesus said to them, ‘The cup that I drink you will

drink; and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized;40

but

to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for

whom it has been prepared.’ 41

When the ten heard this, they began to be angry with James and John. 42

So

Jesus called them and said to them, ‘You know that among the Gentiles those

whom they recognize as their rulers lord it over them, and their great ones are

tyrants over them. 43

But it is not so among you; but whoever wishes to become

great among you must be your servant, 44

and whoever wishes to be first among

you must be slave of all. 45

For the Son of Man came not to be served but to

serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.’

Gospel Response: This is the gospel of the Lord,

PRAISE TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST.

SERMON followed by a short time for reflection

The Nicene Creed

I BELIEVE in one God the Father Almighty,

Maker of heaven and earth, And of all things visible and invisible:

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten son of God, Begotten of

his Father before all worlds, God of God,

Light of Light, Very God of very God, Begotten, not made,

Being of one substance with the Father, By whom all things were made: Who

for us men, and for our salvation came down from heaven, And was incarnate

by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary,

And was made man, And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He

suffered and was buried, And the third day he rose again according to the

Scriptures, And ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of the

Father. And he shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the

dead: Whose kingdom shall have no end.

And I believe in the Holy Ghost, The Lord and giver of life, Who

proceedeth from the Father and the Son, Who with the Father and the Son

together is worshipped and glorified, Who spake by the Prophets. And I believe

one Catholick and Apostolick Church. I acknowledge one Baptism for the

remission of sins. And I look for the Resurrection of the dead, And the life of

the world to come. Amen.

Then shall the Priest say bible Sentences as he thinketh most convenient in his

discretion.

LET your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and

glorify your Father which is in heaven. St. Matth. v.

Then shall the Priest return to the Lord's Table, and begin the Offertory, the Alms

for the Poor, and other devotions of the people, shall be placed upon the holy

Table. And when there is a Communion, the Priest shall then place upon the Table

so much Bread and Wine, as he shall think sufficient. After which done, the Priest

shall say,

Gracious Lord, we pray that you accept these our gifts, and us your people, for

your service and to your glory. Amen.

7

Let us pray for the whole state of Christ's Church militant here in earth.

(the congregation kneel or sit).

ALMIGHTY and everliving God, who by thy holy Apostle hast taught us to make

prayers, and supplications, and to give thanks for all men; We humbly beseech

thee most mercifully to receive these our prayers, which we offer unto thy Divine

Majesty; beseeching thee to inspire continually the Universal Church with the spirit

of truth, unity, and concord: And grant, that all they who do confess thy holy Name

may agree in the truth of thy holy Word, and live in unity, and godly love. We

beseech thee also to save and defend all Christian Kings, Princes, and Governors;

and specially thy Servant ELIZABETH our Queen; that under her we may be godly

and quietly governed: And grant unto her whole Council, and to all that are put in

authority under her, that they may truly and impartially administer justice, to the

punishment of wickedness and vice, and to the maintenance of thy true religion,

and virtue. Give grace, O heavenly Father, to all Bishops and Curates, that they may

both by their life and doctrine set forth thy true and lively Word, and rightly and

duly administer thy holy Sacraments.

And to all thy people give thy heavenly grace; and especially to this congregation

here present; that, with meek heart and due reverence, they may hear, and

receive thy holy Word; truly serving thee in holiness and righteousness all the

days of their life. And we most humbly beseech thee, of thy goodness, O Lord, to

comfort and succour all those who, in this transitory life, are in trouble, sorrow,

need, sickness, or any other adversity. We bless thy holy Name for all thy servants

departed this life in thy faith and fear, beseeching thee to give us grace so to

follow their good examples, that with them we may be partakers of thy heavenly

kingdom. Grant this, O Father, for Jesus Christ's sake, our only Mediator and

Advocate. Amen.

We remember before God with thanksgiving the lives of Dot Dowker (2010),

and Betty Kemp (2005) as we come to the anniversary of their entry into your

nearer presence.

9

Then shall the Priest say to them that come to receive the Holy Communion,

YE that do truly and earnestly repent you of your sins, and are in love and charity

with your neighbours, and intend to lead a new life, following the

commandments of God, and walking from henceforth in his holy ways; Draw near

with faith, and take this holy Sacrament to your comfort; and make your humble

confession to Almighty God.

Then shall this general Confession be made.

ALMIGHTY God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Maker of all things, judge of all

men; We acknowledge and bewail our manifold sins and wickedness, Which

we, from time to time, most grievously have committed, By thought, word, and

deed, Against thy Divine Majesty, Provoking most justly thy wrath and

indignation against us. We do earnestly repent, And are heartily sorry for these

our misdoings; The remembrance of them is grievous unto us; The burden of

them is intolerable. Have mercy upon us, Have mercy upon us, most merciful

Father; For thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ's sake, Forgive us all that is past; And

grant that we may ever hereafter Serve and please thee In newness of life, To

the honour and glory of thy Name; Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Then shall the Priest, (or the Bishop, being present) standing up, and turning

himself to the people, pronounce this Absolution.

ALMIGHTY God, our heavenly Father, who of his great mercy hath promised

forgiveness of sins to all them that with hearty repentance and true faith

turn unto 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.

Then shall the Priest say,

Hear what comfortable words our Saviour Christ saith unto all that truly turn

to him.

Come unto me all that travail and are heavy laden, and I will refresh you. St.

Matth. xi. 28.

So God loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, to the end that

all that believe in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

St. John iii. 16

10

Hear also what Saint Paul saith.

This is a true saying, and worthy of all men to be received, that Christ Jesus

came into the world to save sinners. 1 Tim. i. 15.

Hear also what Saint John saith.

If any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous;

and he is the propitiation for our sins. 1 St. John ii. 1.

After which the Priest shall proceed, saying,

Lift up your hearts.

Answer. We lift them up unto the Lord.

Priest. Let us give thanks unto our Lord God.

Answer. It is meet and right so to do.

Then shall the Priest say,

IT is very meet, right, and our bounden duty, that we should at all times, and in

all places, give thanks unto thee, O Lord, Holy Father, Almighty, Everlasting God.

THEREFORE with Angels and Archangels, and with all the company of heaven, we

laud and magnify thy glorious Name; evermore praising thee, and saying,

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts,

heaven and earth are full of thy glory:

Glory be to thee, O Lord most High. Amen

Then all them that shall receive the Communion pray.

WE do not presume to come to this thy Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our

own righteousness, but in thy manifold and great mercies. We are not worthy

so much as to gather up the crumbs under thy Table. But thou art the same

Lord, whose property is always to have mercy: Grant us therefore, gracious

Lord, so to eat

the flesh of thy 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.

11

When the Priest, standing before the Table, hath so ordered the Bread and Wine,

that he may with the more readiness and decency break the Bread before the

people, and take the Cup into his hands, he shall say the Prayer of Consecration,

as followeth.

ALMIGHTY God, our heavenly Father, who of thy tender mercy didst give thine

only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the Cross for our redemption; who

made there a full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and satisfaction, for

the sins of the whole world; and did institute, and in his holy Gospel command us

to continue, a perpetual memory of that his precious death, until his coming

again; Hear us, O merciful Father, we most humbly beseech thee; and grant that

we receiving these thy creatures of bread and wine, according to thy Son our

Saviour Jesus Christ's holy institution, in remembrance of his death and passion,

may be partakers of his most blessed Body and Blood: who, in the same night

that he was betrayed, (a) took Bread; and, when he had given thanks, (b) he

brake it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take, eat, (c) this is my Body which is

given for you: Do this in remembrance of me.

Likewise after supper he (d) took the Cup; and, when he had given thanks, he

gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of this; for this (e) is my Blood of the New

Testament, which is shed for you and for many for the remission of sins: Do this,

as oft as ye shall drink it, in remembrance of me. Amen.

Jesus, Lamb of God. Have mercy on us.

Jesus, bearer of our sins. Have mercy on us.

Jesus, redeemer of the world. Grant us your peace.

Come, let us take this Holy Sacrament of the body and blood of Christ in

remembrance that he died for us, and feed on him in our hearts by faith

with thanksgiving.

Baptised Christians who receive communion in their own church

are invited to share communion with us today.

Communion wine may be received:

(a) from the common cup from the first of the two Eucharistic Assistants.

(b) by intinction from the second of the Eucharistic Assistants where a small part of

the wafer is carefully dipped in the wine, or

(c) from an individual glass on request from the first Eucharistic Assistant. Or you

may choose to receive the wafer only (Communion in one kind).

12

Let us pray in the words that our Lord Jesus Christ has taught us:

OUR Father, which art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy Name.

Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive them that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation;

But deliver us from evil:

For thine is the kingdom,

The power, and the glory,

For ever and ever. Amen.

After shall be said by the Priest a prayer of thanksgiving.

Then shall be said by all, standing,

GLORY be to God on high,

and in earth peace, good will towards men.

We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee,

we glorify thee, we give thanks to thee for thy great glory,

O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty.

O Lord, the only begotten Son Jesu Christ;

O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,

that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us.

Thou that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou that

takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer. Thou that sittest at the

right hand of God the Father,

have mercy upon us.

For thou only art holy; thou only art the Lord;

thou only, O Christ, with the Holy Ghost,

art most high in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

Then the Priest (or Bishop if he be present) shall let them depart with this

Blessing.

THE peace of God, which passeth 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 Ghost, be amongst

you and remain with you always. Amen.
