11 a.m. Choral Eucharist

• If you are new to Grace Cathedral, please introduce yourself and fill out a welcome card so we can be in touch with you. We’re glad you’re here!

• Join us for coffee and conversation across the plaza in the Chapter House Library after the 8:30 a.m. service or in the Gym after the 11 a.m. service.

Welcome to this sacred house of prayer for all people. Those who built this place and care for it love tradition and feel passionate about engaging with what is new. If you look closely you will find images of scientists, reformers, Jewish rabbis and Roman Catholic popes, political leaders, saints, and even an astronaut.We invite you to be part of this joyful community even if your visit is short. You might ask yourself two questions: “What do I need to receive? What do I have to give?” We would be delighted to hear about your explorations. May God bless you on your journey!

– The Very Rev. Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral

Welcome to Grace Cathedral

about today’s readings Numbers 6:22-27, Philippians 2:5-11, Luke 2:15-2Reading texts can be found at the end of the service leaflet.

Our readings today invite us to consider the power of naming. It’s one of the first markers of a baby’s personhood and entry into a community, the bestowal of a name. Farther along, the first words a baby might say would be other beloved names: Mama. Papa.

After the adventure of bringing their child safely into the world, Mary and Joseph invoke the traditions of their community to give him that treasured gift of a name, and with it, a place among their people. How Jesus came to fully inhabit his name and identity, and grow in understanding of how these things called him outward and onward is a long story that we ponder again and again on our own journey.

How do we live into our own name, “the people of God”? How comfortable—or uncomfortable—is it to name God as our Abba or Mama? Where does our name call us into a wider circle, out of our comfort zone, into the unknown? What capacity for loving recognition and welcome grows with the sharing and honoring of our names? To name is to bless; to pronounce another as unique, as incarnate, as irreplaceable.

This reflection was written by Carol James, a congregant who has been part of the cathedral community for over a decade. She is the interim mentor of the Education for Ministry program, after co-mentoring from 2008-2013. Carol currently leads the evening prayer providers in our Jail Ministry and is a cathedral staff member.

The Gift of the NameToday, the eighth day of Christmas, is the feast of the Holy Name, marking when Jesus was circumcised and received his name—the name chosen from before he was conceived in the womb because he would save God’s people; tall order for a child eight days old!

Like Jesus, our names mean something. What we call ourselves can describe where we come from, how we belong; they can also describe what we aspire to, what we are becoming.

As we look ahead this New Year’s Day, we might pause to name the challenges we face, and those things that make us stronger. Many will undertake resolutions to live better, or more generously.

This month, our dean invites the cathedral community to become better acquainted with each other and with our many guests. Today, as we offer each other a sign of peace, please also offer the gift of your name and share where your name comes from. Whether received at an early age or claimed later on, our names are important. When we share the gift of our name, we welcome and honor one another, and begin to know each other better.

Then, join your (perhaps newly-met) friends for coffee and fellowship after the 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. services, or for a book group or other event—there are many opportunities for us to learn one another’s names. - Jeffrey Hookom, Precentor

Gloria in excelsis Sung in Latin William Byrd Mass for Three Voices

Choir Glory be to God on high, and on 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.

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.

Collect of the Day

Presider May God be with you. People And also with you.

Let us pray. Eternal Father, you gave to your incarnate Son the holy name of Jesus to be the sign of our salvation: Plant in every heart, we pray, the love of him who is the Savior of the world, our Lord Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.

The Word of God The First Reading The people sit. Numbers 6:22–27

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

Psalm 8 The antiphon is sung first by the choir, then repeated by all.

Antiphon O Lord, our Gov-er-nor, how ex-al-ted is your Name in all the world. Choir Out of the mouths of infants and children *

your majesty is praised above the heavens. You have set up a stronghold against your adversaries, *

to quell the enemy and the avenger. When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, *

the moon and the stars you have set in their courses, What is man that you should be mindful of him? *

the son of man that you should seek him out? All O Lord, our Governor, how exalted is your Name in all the world. You have made him but little lower than the angels; *

you adorn him with glory and honor; You give him mastery over the works of your hands; *

you put all things under his feet: All sheep and oxen, *

even the wild beasts of the field, The birds of the air, the fish of the sea, *

and whatsoever walks in the paths of the sea. All O Lord, our Governor, how exalted is your Name in all the world.

The Nicene Creed The people stand.

All We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.

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:

by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from 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. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He 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 deacon leads the prayers.

After each petition God, grant us peace. The presider concludes with a collect.

All Amen.The Gift of a Name

Presider The peace of Christ be always with you. All And also with you.

Today, as we offer each other a sign of peace, please also offer the

gift of your name and share where your name comes from.

Welcome The Holy Communion

Offertory Sentence An offering will be received for the ministries of Grace Cathedral. Thank you for your generosity.

The Breaking of the Bread The Bread is broken. Silence follows.

The choir alone sings the first Alleluia, then the people join in.

Choir Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us;

People

All repeat the three Alleluias.

Invitation to Communion

The presider invites the people to come forward for Communion. All who seek God and are drawn to Christ are welcome at God’s table.

Gluten-free Communion wafers are available on request at the north altar rail,

For a variety of reasons, it is our custom to consume the Bread and sip the Wine directly from the cup. You are invited to guide the cup by grasping its base. If you choose not to receive

either the Bread or the Wine, simply cross your arms over your chest and respond “A men” when it is presented.

Ministers are available for shared prayer for healing in the AIDS Interfaith Chapel at the rear of the cathedral.

Agnus Dei Sung in Latin Byrd

Motet Martin Shaw

Choir The old year now away is fled. the new year it is entered. Then let us all our sins down tread, and joyfully all appear. Let’s merry be this day. And let us now both sport and play, hang grief, cast care away. God send you a merry new year!

The name day now of Christ we keep, Who for our sins did often weep. His hands and feet were wounded deep, and his blessed side with a spear, his head they crowned with thorn. And at him they did laugh and scorn, who for our good was born. God send us a merry new year!

And now with New Year’s gifts each friend unto each other they do send. God grant we may our lives amend, and that truth may now appear. Now like the snake, your skin cast off, of evil thoughts and sin. And so the year begin -- God send us a merry new year! —English carol 18th century

Postcommunion Prayer After all have received Communion, the people stand.

Presider Let us pray. All Almighty and everliving God,

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 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 for ever. Amen.

The Sending ForthHymn 109 Sung by all, standing. The First Nowell

1 The first Nowell the angel did say was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay; in fields as they lay keeping their sheep, on a cold winter’s night that was so deep.

Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, born is the King of Israel.

 2 They lookèd up and saw a star shining in the east beyond them far, and to the earth it gave great light, and so it continued both day and night. Refrain

 3 And by the light of that same star three wisemen came from country far; to seek for a king was their intent, and to follow the star wherever it went. Refrain.

 4 This star drew nigh to the northwest, o’er Bethlehem it took its rest, and there it did both stop and stay right over the place where Jesus lay.Refrain

 5 Then entered in those wisemen three full reverently upon their knee, and offered there in his presence their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense. Refrain

 6 Then let us all with one accord sing praises to our heav’nly Lord; that hath made heav’n and earth of naught and with his blood our life hath bought. Refrain

TheReadings

Numbers 6:22–27

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, Thus you shall bless the

Israelites: You shall say to them: The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace. So they shall put my name on the Israelites, and I will bless them.

Philippians 2:5–11

Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God,

did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death— even death on a cross. Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in

heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Luke 2:15–21

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another,

“Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.” So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them. But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.After eight days had passed, it was time to circumcise the child; and he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
