All Saints Sunday, November 3, The Way of Love in Community

Season of Creation

ORDER OF SERVICE BULLETIN

8:00 & 10:30 AM, Holy Eucharist

Welcome to The Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion, a welcoming and diverse community seeking to walk in the Way of Jesus and to reveal Christ’s reconciling love in our city, nation, and world.

Get Involved: If you fill out a “Let’s Get Connected Card” found in your pew, or at the Welcome Table by the door where you came into the church, we’d be glad to keep you up to date with all that’s happening at Holy Communion. Or, simply scan the QR code below to visit  holycommunion.net where you can share your contact information, find a worship bulletin, read the latest news, and more.

Communion: “These are the gifts of God for the people of God.” 

At The Church of the Holy Communion, we believe that it is Christ himself who invites us to meet him in the bread and the cup. Though it is known by many names - Communion, Mass, Holy Eucharist, The Lord’s Supper, the Sacrament of the Altar - it is the means by which Christ’s real presence abides with us by faith. Therefore, all are welcome to receive. When it comes time for Communion, please follow the directions of the Greeters. The bread is offered to all, with gluten free wafers available, upon request, from the minister. If you would like to receive the wine, you may either drink from the cup, or intinct (dip) the wafer in the wine.  Likewise, it is acceptable to receive only the bread, if for personal or health reasons you prefer to not consume wine. Those not receiving Communion, may also come forward. Indicate to the minister that you do not wish to receive Communion by simply crossing your arms across your chest, and the minister will offer a prayer for God’s blessing in your life.

Kids are expected! Kids are welcome to "act their age" and encouraged to fully participate in worship. Kids may use the "Pray Ground” (carpeted area near the chapel), take a Worship Wonder bag from the back of the Nave, or join their adults with kids' worship bulletins and crayons provided by greeters. Starting September 8th, Godly Play is offered downstairs beginning at 10 am. Kids return to their caregivers at 11am in time for the Peace. Mitchell Hall is our designated infant feeding area during the service. If you need assistance finding any of these options, just ask a Greeter. 

Accessibility: “Priority Seating” is provided for caretakers of those with mobility needs. Our entrances have auto-open buttons, and our elevator is ADA compliant. Both the downstairs restrooms and one of the upstairs restrooms are accessible. 

Hearing Assistance: Hearing assistance devices are available from the welcome table. If you have any questions, just ask a Greeter.

Donations: We welcome donations to support the mission and ministry Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion. Monetary donations can be placed in the offering plate that will be passed during the service, put in the wooden offering box found at the Welcome Table, by scanning the QR code below, or by electronic donations set up through your bank or on the church website, holycommunion.net

Preparing to Worship

In these final weeks of the Church Year, between now and the end of November, we consciously focus on the gift of community within our worship. All human beings are connected by virtue of God’s love for all. God’s love transcends our differences and disagreements. In these anxious times, we cry out to God that by grace we would learn anew to live together “in unity, constancy, and peace.”

 

Some of the ways we reflect God’s gift of community in our worship:

•  The placement of the Confession at the beginning of the liturgy, reflecting our shared standing before God as human beings in need of reconciliation.

•  The presence of the Labyrinth, exposed for the remainder of the church year (through November), as a symbol of our common journey to God. (Feel free to walk/pray the labyrinth.)

•  The use of Spanish in our liturgy, spoken and sung, reminding us of the diversity of human expression as God’s gift.

•  A form of the Nicene Creed using expansive language without masculine imagery.

•  The image on the cover, “Homeless Christ”, by iconographer, Kelly Latimore (used with permission), serves as a reminder of the Christian community’s call to serve Christ in the marginalized and least of the world.

A Quote on Christian Community

“The Christian community, therefore, is that community that freely becomes oppressed, because they know that Jesus himself has defined humanity's liberation in the context of what happens to the little ones. Christians join the cause of the oppressed in the fight for justice not because of some philosophical principle of "the Good" or because of a religious feeling of sympathy for people in prison. Sympathy does not change the structures of injustice. The authentic identity of Christians with the poor is found in the claim which the Jesus-encounter lays upon their own life-style, a claim that connects the word "Christian" with the liberation of the poor. Christians fight not for humanity in general but for themselves and out of their love for concrete human beings.”

                                                                                                ~James H. Cone, God of the Oppressed

 

A Prayer in a Season of Discernment

Today, O God of all days, give us an experience of your heart. Draw us deep into your very being, into the core of your love for us, others, and the world. Give us a glimpse of others the way you see others: loving them, forgiving them, and delighting in the way they give glory to God through their very existence. Help us to discern out of that open place of deep affection so that we too might be useful vessels of your love in the world. Amen.

Affirmation of Faith: Nicene Creed

Please rise in body or spirit. Spoken in unison.

 

Celebrant      Let us affirm our faith in God.

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

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

We believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Giver of life,
who proceeds from the Creator,
who with the Creator and the Christ is worshiped and glorified,
and 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

Please remain standing or kneel, in body or spirit.

 

Deacon           O God, Jesus Christ seeks us and meets us in the everydayness of our lives. All that we do, at work, at school, at play, all the ordinary things of our lives are acts of prayer. Let us gather our prayers, desires, and thanksgivings and offer them to the Holy One who first loved us.

 

Leader             O God, our Creator, you have graced us with the gift of life and a world to live in. Empower and strengthen the witness of your church that, true to its calling, it may proclaim your radical and boundless love, in word and deed.

People             Send us, O Christ. 

 

Leader             O God, you nourish and sustain us by word and Sacrament. Strengthen all the people of our church, especially Michael our Presiding Bishop, Sean our Presiding Bishop-elect, Deon our diocesan Bishop, Chester, Julie, and Earl, our Clergy, and all those who lead your church, including our parish Discernment Team. Grant that, sustained in you, our service and witness in this community may be full of faith and love.

People          Awaken us, O Christ. 

 

Leader             O God, source of our life, you have adopted us in the waters of baptism and made us your own in love.

People          Inspire us, O Christ. 

 

Leader             O God of many names, you are revealed in differing faiths but know us each by name. Give us understanding hearts that we may see in the face of those who differ from us none other than the face of Jesus. May your name be always on our lips and in our actions. 

People          Enliven us, O Christ. 

Leader             God of justice, you revealed your power in the servanthood of Jesus. May those who govern the nations use their authority in wisdom, kindness and peace. Awaken in all who govern a thirst for justice that embodies your care for this earth and the human community.

People          Seek us, O Christ. 

 

Leader             God of liberation, you are the hope of the weak and the needy. Rescue those who suffer poverty, injustice or oppression when they cry out. Open the ears of our hearts to hear and quicken in us the fire to respond in love.

Leader             O God of grace, in you we live and move and have our being. Grant to those who are unemployed, underemployed and those who continue to seek gainful employment, hope and strength to face the days ahead. Awaken in us a graceful spirit that we may offer support and empowering care.

People         Support us, O Christ

 

Leader             O God of compassion, you are a well-spring of comfort and healing. Grant comfort, healing and release to those who suffer illness, distress or grief.

                        Remembering especially _________________. Petitions may be added silently or aloud.

Please rise in body or in spirit.

 

The Eucharistic Prayer

 

Celebrant        God 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 right to give our thanks and praise.

 

It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Almighty God, Creator of heaven and earth.

Because you are greatly glorified in the assembly of your saints. All your creatures praise you, and your faithful servants bless you, confessing before the rulers of this world the great Name of your only Son. 

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

 

The people join together in the Sanctus (Spoken at 8:00; sung at the 10:30 service).

 

Celebrant and People

Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might,

Heaven and earth are full of your glory.

Hosanna in the highest.

Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.

Hosanna in the highest. 

 

Please remain standing, or kneel, in body or spirit. The Celebrant continues.

 

Holy and gracious God: In your infinite love you made us for yourself; and, when we had fallen into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent Jesus Christ, your only and eternal Son, to share our human nature, to live and die as one of us, to reconcile us to you, the

God and maker of all.

Jesus stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself in obedience to your will, a perfect sacrifice for the whole world.

On the night he was handed over to suffering and death, our Savior Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.”

After supper Jesus took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, “Drink this, all of you:

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 for the remembrance of me.”

 

Therefore, we proclaim the mystery of faith:

 

Christ has died.

Christ is risen.

Christ will come again.

 

We celebrate the memorial of our redemption, Almighty God, in this sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Recalling Christ’s death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these gifts.

Sanctify them by your Holy Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son, the holy food and drink of new and unending life in Christ. Sanctify us also that we may faithfully receive this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity, constancy, and peace; and at the last day bring us with all your saints into the joy of your eternal kingdom.

All this we ask through Jesus Christ our Savior. By Christ, and with Christ, and in Christ, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory are yours, Almighty God, now and forever.

AMEN.

  

The Lord’s Prayer

Celebrant      And now as our Savior Christ has taught us, and in the language of our heart, we pray:

 

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen

 

Padre nuestro que estás en el cielo, santificado sea tu Nombre, venga tu reino, hágase tu voluntad, en la tierra como en el cielo. Danos hoy nuestro pan de cada día. Perdona nuestras ofensas, como también nosotros perdonamos a los que nos ofenden. No nos dejes caer en tentación y líbranos del mal. Porque tuyo es el reino, tuyo es el poder, y tuya es la gloria, ahora y por siempre. Amén

Send us now into the world in peace, and grant us strength and courage to love and serve you with gladness and singleness of heart; through Christ our Savior. Amen.

 

Sending of Lay Eucharistic Visitors

At various times, Lay Eucharistic Visitors take the consecrated bread and wine to those who cannot physically be present for worship. When we do so, the following prayer may be offered:

 

Deacon           We send you forth, bearing these holy gifts, that those to whom you go may share with us                           in the Body and Blood of Christ our Savior.

People         We who are many are one body, because we all share one bread, one cup.

 

The Blessing

I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit because, apart from me, you can do nothing. You did not choose me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last.                                                                     - John 15:5, 16a

 

✠ The Eternal God, Creator, Redeemer, and Sanctifier of all, bless and keep us, now and always.  Amen.

Almighty God, you have knit together your elect in one communion and fellowship in the mystical body of your Son Christ our Lord: Give us grace so to follow your blessed saints in all virtuous and godly living, that we may come to those ineffable joys that you have prepared for those who truly love you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.

 

First Lesson: Wisdom of Solomon 3:1-9

The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God,
and no torment will ever touch them.
In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died,
and their departure was thought to be a disaster,
and their going from us to be their destruction;
but they are at peace.
For though in the sight of others they were punished,
their hope is full of immortality.
Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good,
because God tested them and found them worthy of himself;
like gold in the furnace he tried them,
and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them.
In the time of their visitation they will shine forth,
and will run like sparks through the stubble.
They will govern nations and rule over peoples,
and the Lord will reign over them forever.
Those who trust in him will understand truth,
and the faithful will abide with him in love,
because grace and mercy are upon his holy ones,
and he watches over his elect.

Psalm 24

Spoken responsively by whole verse.

Reader        1 The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, *
the world and all who dwell therein.

People        2 For it is he who founded it upon the seas *
and made it firm upon the rivers of the deep.

Reader        3 "Who can ascend the hill of the Lord? *
and who can stand in his holy place?"

People                 4 "Those who have clean hands and a pure heart, *
who have not pledged themselves to falsehood,
nor sworn by what is a fraud.

Reader        5 They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *
and a just reward from the God of their salvation."

People           6 Such is the generation of those who seek him, *
of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.

Reader                7 Lift up your heads, O gates;
lift them high, O everlasting doors; *
and the King of glory shall come in.

People                8 "Who is this King of glory?" *
"The Lord, strong and mighty,
the Lord, mighty in battle."

Reader                9 Lift up your heads, O gates;
lift them high, O everlasting doors; *
and the King of glory shall come in.

People      10 "Who is he, this King of glory?" *
"The Lord of hosts,
he is the King of glory."

 

Second Lesson: Revelation 21:1-6a

I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,

"See, the home of God is among mortals.
He will dwell with them as their God;
they will be his peoples,
and God himself will be with them;
he will wipe every tear from their eyes.
Death will be no more;
mourning and crying and pain will be no more,
for the first things have passed away."

And the one who was seated on the throne said, "See, I am making all things new." Also he said, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true." Then he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end."

 

The Gospel: John 11:32-44

When Mary came where Jesus was and saw him, she knelt at his feet and said to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died." When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was greatly disturbed in spirit and deeply moved. He said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to him, "Lord, come and see." Jesus began to weep. So the Jews said, "See how he loved him!" But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?"

Then Jesus, again greatly disturbed, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it. Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, already there is a stench because he has been dead four days." Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?" So they took away the stone. And Jesus looked upward and said, "Father, I thank you for having heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I have said this for the sake of the crowd standing here, so that they may believe that you sent me." When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."
