Please contact Alcoholics Anonymous for more information. A.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution. \n\n\n\nWhat is Alcoholics Anonymous?\n\n\n\nAlcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their experience\, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. \n\n\n\nThe only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy\, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. \n\n\n\nWhat A.A. does do: \n\n\n\n\nOur primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.\n\n\n\nA.A. members share their experience with anyone seeking help with a drinking problem; they give person-to-person service or “sponsorship” to the alcoholic coming to A.A. from any source.\n\n\n\nThe A.A. program\, set forth in our Twelve Steps\, offers the alcoholic a way to develop a satisfying life without alcohol.\n\n\n\n\nThis program is discussed at A.A. group meetings. \n\n\n\n\nOpen speaker meetings — open to alcoholics and nonalcoholics. (Attendance at an open A.A. meeting is the best way to learn what A.A. is\, what it does\, and what it does not do.) At speaker meetings\, A.A. members “tell their stories.” They describe their experiences with alcohol\, how they came to A.A.\, and how their lives have changed as a result of Alcoholics Anonymous.\n\n\n\nOpen discussion meetings — one member speaks briefly about his or her drinking experience\, and then leads a discussion on A.A. recovery or any drinking-related problem anyone brings up. (Closed meetings are for A.A.s or anyone who may have a drinking problem.)\n\n\n\nClosed discussion meetings — conducted just as open discussions are\, but for alcoholics or prospective A.A.s only.\n\n\n\nStep meetings (usually closed) — discussion of one of the Twelve Steps.

Trump\, President of the United StatesRobert Ferguson\, Governor of WashingtonTeri Gobin\, Chair of the Tulalip TribesCecile Hanson\, Chair of the Duwamish Nation \n\n\n\nLessons\n\n\n\nLessons appointed for use for this day from the Revised Common Lectionary (Episcopal version). \n\n\n\nIsaiah 43:16-21 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nThus says the Lord\, who makes a way in the sea\, a path in the mighty waters\, who brings out chariot and horse\, army and warrior; they lie down\, they cannot rise\, they are extinguished\, quenched like a wick: “Do not remember the former things\, or consider the things of old. I am about to do a new thing; now it springs forth\, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. The wild animals will honor me\, the jackals and the ostriches; for I give water in the wilderness\, rivers in the desert\, to give drink to my chosen people\, the people whom I formed for myself so that they might declare my praise.” \n\n\n\nPsalm 126 (BCP)\n\n\n\nIn convertendo \n\n\n\n1            When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion\, *then were we like those who dream.  \n\n\n\n2            Then was our mouth filled with laughter\, *and our tongue with shouts of joy.  \n\n\n\n3            Then they said among the nations\, *“The Lord has done great things for them.”  \n\n\n\n4            The Lord has done great things for us\, *and we are glad indeed.  \n\n\n\n5            Restore our fortunes\, O Lord\, *like the watercourses of the Negev.  \n\n\n\n6            Those who sowed with tears *will reap with songs of joy.  \n\n\n\n7            Those who go out weeping\, carrying the seed\, *will come again with joy\, shouldering their sheaves. \n\n\n\nPhilippians 3:4b-14 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nIf anyone else has reason to be confident in the flesh\, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day\, a member of the people of Israel\, of the tribe of Benjamin\, a Hebrew born of Hebrews; as to the law\, a Pharisee; as to zeal\, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law\, blameless. Yet whatever gains I had\, these I have come to regard as loss because of Christ. More than that\, I regard everything as loss because of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things\, and I regard them as rubbish\, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him\, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law\, but one that comes through faith in Christ\, the righteousness from God based on faith. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the sharing of his sufferings by becoming like him in his death\, if somehow I may attain the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained this or have already reached the goal; but I press on to make it my own\, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Beloved\, I do not consider that I have made it my own; but this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead\, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus. \n\n\n\nJohn 12:1-8 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nSix days before the Passover Jesus came to Bethany\, the home of Lazarus\, whom he had raised from the dead. There they gave a dinner for him. Martha served\, and Lazarus was one of those at the table with him. Mary took a pound of costly perfume made of pure nard\, anointed Jesus’ feet\, and wiped them with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But Judas Iscariot\, one of his disciples (the one who was about to betray him)\, said\, “Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?” (He said this not because he cared about the poor\, but because he was a thief; he kept the common purse and used to steal what was put into it.) Jesus said\, “Leave her alone. She bought it so that she might keep it for the day of my burial. You always have the poor with you\, but you do not always have me.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament\, New Testament and Gospel readings are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicized Edition\, copyright 1989\, 1995\, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

We look forward to seeing you at this 8:00 am Sunday service of Holy Eucharist at Church of the Redeemer. It is in-person only. \n\n\n\nWhile not required\, you may wear a mask when in the building. We have masks available for you\, if you want. \n\n\n\nEucharist\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ’s body and blood\, and the principal act of Christian worship. The term is from the Greek\, “thanksgiving.” \n\n\n\nJesus instituted the Eucharist “on the night when he was betrayed.” At the Last Supper he shared the bread and cup of wine at a sacred meal with his disciples. He identified the bread with his body and the wine with his blood of the new covenant. Jesus commanded his disciples to “do this” in remembrance of him (see 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Mark 14:22-25; Matthew 26:26-29; Luke 22:14-20). \n\n\n\nChrist’s sacrifice is made present by the Eucharist\, and in it we are united to his one self-offering (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 859). The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold Eucharistic action of taking\, blessing\, breaking\, and sharing. Christ’s body and blood are really present in the sacrament of the Eucharist and received by faith. Christ’s presence is also known in the gathered eucharistic community. \n\n\n\nIn the Book of Common Prayer\, the whole service is entitled the Holy Eucharist. \n\n\n\n\nThe first part of the service is designated the Word of God. It usually includes the entrance rite\, the lessons and gradual psalm\, the gospel\, the sermon\, the Nicene Creed\, the Prayers of the People\, the confession of sin and absolution\, and the Peace.\n\n\n\nThe second portion of the service is designated the Holy Communion. It includes the offertory\, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving\, the communion of the people\, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal.\n\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is also called the Lord’s Supper\, Holy Communion\, the Divine Liturgy\, the Mass\, and the Great Offertory (BCP\, p. 859). \n\n\n\nThe Hymnal 1982 includes a section with a variety of hymns for the Holy Eucharist (Numbers 300 through 347)\, including “Come\, risen Lord\, and deign to be our guest” (305 and 306)\, “My God\, thy table now is spread” (321)\, “Now\, my tongue\, the mystery telling” (329 through 331)\, and “I am the bread of life” (335). \n\n\n\n(Above taken from Eucharist .)

Please contact Cocaine Anonymous for more information. In the spirit of Tradition Six\, C.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution. \n\n\n\nMeeting type: \n\n\n\n\nMeditation: Practices vary\, but typically there is a brief period of meditation prior to any sharing. The meditation may be silent or accompanied by audio intended to help facilitate the practice. Lights may be turned off or dimmed during the meditation.\n\n\n\nCandlelight: The meeting is conducted partly or entirely by candlelight.\n\n\n\n\nAbout C.A.\n\n\n\nCocaine Anonymous is a Fellowship of men and women who share their experience\, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others recover from their addiction. \n\n\n\nThe best way to reach someone is to speak to them on a common level. The members of C.A. are all recovering addicts who maintain their individual sobriety by working with others. We come from various social\, ethnic\, economic and religious backgrounds\, but what we have in common is addiction. \n\n\n\nThe only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances. \n\n\n\nAnyone who wants to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances (including alcohol and other drugs) is welcome. \n\n\n\nThere are no dues or fees for membership; we are fully self-supporting through our own contributions. \n\n\n\nWe do ask for voluntary contributions at meetings to cover expenses such as coffee\, rent\, literature and services to help those who are still suffering. However\, newcomers need not feel obligated to contribute. We do not accept donations from organizations or individuals outside the Fellowship. \n\n\n\nWe are not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution. \n\n\n\nIn order to maintain our integrity and avoid any possible complications\, we are not affiliated with any outside organization. Although C.A. is a spiritual program\, we do not align ourselves with any religion. Our members are free to define their spirituality as they see fit. Our individual members may have opinions of their own\, but C.A. as a whole has no opinion on outside issues. We are not affiliated with any rehabs\, recovery houses or hospitals\, but many do refer their patients to Cocaine Anonymous to maintain their sobriety. \n\n\n\nOur primary purpose is to stay free from cocaine and all other mind-altering substances and to help others achieve the same freedom. \n\n\n\nThe only purpose of Cocaine Anonymous is to offer recovery to individuals who are suffering from addiction. Our experience has shown that the most effective way to attain and maintain sobriety is to work with others suffering from the same malady. \n\n\n\nWe use the Twelve-Step recovery program because it has already been proven that the Twelve-Step recovery program works. \n\n\n\nCocaine Anonymous\n\n\n\nWelcome to Cocaine Anonymous . We are all here for the same reason—our inability to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances. The first step towards solving any problem is admitting that there is a problem. \n\n\n\n12 steps of Cocaine Anonymous\n\n\n\n\nWe admitted we were powerless over cocaine and all other mind-altering substances—that our lives had become unmanageable.\n\n\n\nCame to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.\n\n\n\nMade a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.\n\n\n\nMade a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.\n\n\n\nAdmitted to God\, to ourselves\, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.\n\n\n\nWere entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.\n\n\n\nHumbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.\n\n\n\nMade a list of all persons we had harmed\, and became willing to make amends to them all.\n\n\n\nMade direct amends to such people wherever possible\, except when to do so would injure them or others.\n\n\n\nContinued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.\n\n\n\nSought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him\, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.\n\n\n\nHaving had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps\, we tried to carry this message to addicts\, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

Come for five minutes or for two hours. Be still in the Spirit during this season of repentance and preparation. \n\n\n\nContemplative prayer\n\n\n\n“Contemplation” is a form of mental prayer. Meditation and petition give way to quiet adoration of the mysteries of God. \n\n\n\nContemplative prayer comes after a period of recollection and self-abandonment. Daily concerns vanish. Active imagination gives way to waiting and listening. God is sought and found within the self as divine dwelling-place. \n\n\n\nNot all believers experience contemplation. All may desired it\, and such a desire is already God’s grace. \n\n\n\nTaken from Contemplation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 Kings 19:11-13 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nHe said\, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the Lord\, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Now there was a great wind\, so strong that it was splitting mountains and breaking rocks in pieces before the Lord\, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake\, but the Lord was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire\, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a sound of sheer silence. When Elijah heard it\, he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. Then there came a voice to him that said\, “What are you doing here\, Elijah?” URL:https://redeemer-kenmore.org/event/contemplative-prayer/2025-04-08/ LOCATION:Chapel at Church of the Redeemer\, First floor of the main building on the campus at 6220 Northeast 181st Street\, Kenmore\, WA\, 98028\, United States CATEGORIES:Parish Life ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://redeemer-kenmore.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Church-Events-48-Contemplative-Prayer.webp ORGANIZER;CN="Church Office":MAILTO:office@redeemer-kenmore.org GEO:47.7594575;-122.2595651 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Chapel at Church of the Redeemer First floor of the main building on the campus at 6220 Northeast 181st Street Kenmore WA 98028 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=First floor of the main building on the campus at 6220 Northeast 181st Street:geo:-122.2595651,47.7594575 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250409T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250409T120000 DTSTAMP:20260417T195712 CREATED:20250404T212943Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250404T215153Z UID:10003073-1744196400-1744200000@redeemer-kenmore.org SUMMARY:Bible Study (CANCELLED) DESCRIPTION:Bible Study is on hiatus until May 7. Starting May 7\, the topic will be “Resurrection in the Gospels.” \n\n\n\nRedeemer offers a weekly Bible study. Join Fr. Jed to delve deeper into scripture and grow in the knowledge and love of God.  \n\n\n\nBible study will be at 11:00 am. We will be studying the readings for the coming Sunday.  \n\n\n\nWatch for last-minute announcements about changes on our Facebook page. There are times this study may have to be changed or cancelled at the last moment. \n\n\n\nIf you would like to join\, but this time doesn’t work for you\, please let Fr. Jed know after August 2023. We can look at adding and/or changing the time of the study. \n\n\n\nThe Bible\n\n\n\nThe Bible are the Holy Scriptures of the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) and Christian Scriptures (New Testament)\, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit\, containing all things necessary to salvation. \n\n\n\nThe Hebrew Scriptures reveals God’s mighty acts in creation\, the deliverance of the people of Israel from bondage in Egypt\, and the making of the old covenant with the chosen people. God’s saving will for his people is made known in the Hebrew Scriptures through the gift of the Law in the Ten Commandments and through the witness of the prophets. \n\n\n\nThe Christian Scriptures describe the life\, death\, and resurrection of Jesus Christ\, the Messiah\, whose coming was foretold in the Hebrew Scriptures. It also tells the story of the creation of the Christian church through the gift of the Holy Spirit and presents the new covenant\, based on love\, which is the new relationship with God given by Jesus Christ to all who believe in him. (Book of Common Prayer\, pp. 850-851). \n\n\n\nThe Apocrypha\n\n\n\nThe additional books of the Apocrypha\, written by people of the old covenant\, are often included in the Bible. Although selections from the Apocrypha are used in the worship of the Episcopal Church\, the Apocryphal books are not generally considered of equal scriptural authority in Anglicanism with the Hebrew Scriptures and Christian Scriptures. \n\n\n\nTranslations used in the Episcopal Church\n\n\n\nThe translations of the Bible authorized for use in the worship of the Episcopal Church are the following: \n\n\n\n\nThe King James Version (Authorized Version)\, together with the Marginal Readings authorized for use by the General Convention of 1901\n\n\n\nThe English Revision of 1881\n\n\n\nThe American Revision of 1901\n\n\n\nThe Revised Standard Version of 1952\n\n\n\nThe Jerusalem Bible of 1966\n\n\n\nThe New English Bible with the Apocrypha of 1970\n\n\n\nThe 1976 Good News Bible (Today’s English Version)\n\n\n\nThe New American Bible (1970)\n\n\n\nThe Revised Standard Version\, an Ecumenical Edition\, known as the “R.S.V.

Find the stillness and peace of God in the midst of the week.  \n\n\n\nWatch for last-minute announcements about changes on our Facebook page. There are times this service may have to be changed or cancelled at the last moment. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you when you can join us at the Eucharist.  \n\n\n\nEucharist\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ’s body and blood\, and the principal act of Christian worship. The term is from the Greek\, “thanksgiving.” \n\n\n\nJesus instituted the Eucharist “on the night when he was betrayed.” At the Last Supper he shared the bread and cup of wine at a sacred meal with his disciples. He identified the bread with his body and the wine with his blood of the new covenant. Jesus commanded his disciples to “do this” in remembrance of him (see 1 Cor 11:23-26; Mk 14:22-25; Mt 26:26-29; Lk 22:14-20). \n\n\n\nChrist’s sacrifice is made present by the Eucharist\, and in it we are united to his one self-offering (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 859). The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold Eucharistic action of taking\, blessing\, breaking\, and sharing. Christ’s body and blood are really present in the sacrament of the Eucharist and received by faith. Christ’s presence is also known in the gathered eucharistic community. \n\n\n\nIn the Book of Common Prayer\, the whole service is entitled the Holy Eucharist. \n\n\n\n\nThe first part of the service is designated the Word of God. It usually includes the entrance rite\, the lessons and gradual psalm\, the gospel\, the sermon\, the Nicene Creed\, the Prayers of the People\, the confession of sin and absolution\, and the Peace.\n\n\n\nThe second portion of the service is designated the Holy Communion. It includes the offertory\, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving\, the communion of the people\, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal.\n\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is also called the Lord’s Supper\, Holy Communion\, the Divine Liturgy\, the Mass\, and the Great Offertory (BCP\, p. 859). \n\n\n\nThe Hymnal 1982 includes a section with a variety of hymns for the Holy Eucharist (Numbers 300 through 347)\, including “Come\, risen Lord\, and deign to be our guest” (305 and 306)\, “My God\, thy table now is spread” (321)\, “Now\, my tongue\, the mystery telling” (329 through 331)\, and “I am the bread of life” (335). \n\n\n\n(Above taken from Eucharist.)

Please contact Alcoholics Anonymous for more information. A.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution. \n\n\n\nWhat is Alcoholics Anonymous?\n\n\n\nAlcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their experience\, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. \n\n\n\nThe only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy\, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. \n\n\n\nWhat A.A. does do: \n\n\n\n\nOur primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.\n\n\n\nA.A. members share their experience with anyone seeking help with a drinking problem; they give person-to-person service or “sponsorship” to the alcoholic coming to A.A. from any source.\n\n\n\nThe A.A. program\, set forth in our Twelve Steps\, offers the alcoholic a way to develop a satisfying life without alcohol.\n\n\n\n\nThis program is discussed at A.A. group meetings. \n\n\n\n\nOpen speaker meetings — open to alcoholics and nonalcoholics. (Attendance at an open A.A. meeting is the best way to learn what A.A. is\, what it does\, and what it does not do.) At speaker meetings\, A.A. members “tell their stories.” They describe their experiences with alcohol\, how they came to A.A.\, and how their lives have changed as a result of Alcoholics Anonymous.\n\n\n\nOpen discussion meetings — one member speaks briefly about his or her drinking experience\, and then leads a discussion on A.A. recovery or any drinking-related problem anyone brings up. (Closed meetings are for A.A.s or anyone who may have a drinking problem.)\n\n\n\nClosed discussion meetings — conducted just as open discussions are\, but for alcoholics or prospective A.A.s only.\n\n\n\nStep meetings (usually closed) — discussion of one of the Twelve Steps.

Morning by morning he wakens—wakens my ear to listen as those who are taught. The Lord God has opened my ear\, and I was not rebellious\, I did not turn backward. I gave my back to those who struck me\, and my cheeks to those who pulled out the beard; I did not hide my face from insult and spitting. The Lord God helps me; therefore I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set my face like flint\, and I know that I shall not be put to shame; he who vindicates me is near. Who will contend with me? Let us stand up together. Who are my adversaries? Let them confront me. It is the Lord God who helps me; who will declare me guilty? \n\n\n\nPsalm 118:1-2\, 19-29\n\n\n\nConfitemini Domino \n\n\n\n1            Give thanks to the Lord\, for he is good; *his mercy endures for ever.  \n\n\n\n2            Let Israel now proclaim\, *“His mercy endures for ever.”  \n\n\n\n19          Open for me the gates of righteousness; *I will enter them;I will offer thanks to the Lord.  \n\n\n\n20          “This is the gate of the Lord; *he who is righteous may enter.”  \n\n\n\n21          I will give thanks to you\, for you answered me *and have become my salvation.  \n\n\n\n22          The same stone which the builders rejected *has become the chief cornerstone.  \n\n\n\n23          This is the Lord’s doing\, *and it is marvelous in our eyes.  \n\n\n\n24          On this day the Lord has acted; *we will rejoice and be glad in it.  \n\n\n\n25          Hosannah\, Lord\, hosannah! *Lord\, send us now success.  \n\n\n\n26          Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord; *we bless you from the house of the Lord.  \n\n\n\n27          God is the Lord; he has shined upon us; *form a procession with branches up to the horns of the altar.  \n\n\n\n28          “You are my God\, and I will thank you; *you are my God\, and I will exalt you.”  \n\n\n\n29          Give thanks to the Lord\, for he is good; *his mercy endures for ever. \n\n\n\nPhilippians 2:5-11 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nLet 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. \n\n\n\nLuke 22:14—23:56 or 23:1-49 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nNarratorWhen the hour came\, Jesus took his place at the table\, and the apostles with him. He said to them\, JesusI have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; for I tell you\, I will not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God. NarratorThen he took a cup\, and after giving thanks he said\, JesusTake this and divide it among yourselves; for I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes. NarratorThen he took a loaf of bread\, and when he had given thanks\, he broke it and gave it to them\, saying\, JesusThis is my body\, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me. NarratorAnd he did the same with the cup after supper\, saying\, JesusThis cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. But see\, the one who betrays me is with me\, and his hand is on the table. For the Son of Man is going as it has been determined\, but woe to that one by whom he is betrayed! NarratorThen the apostles began to ask one another\, which one of them it could be who would do this.  A dispute also arose among the apostles as to which one of them was to be regarded as the greatest. But Jesus said to them\,JesusThe kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you; rather the greatest among you must become like the youngest\, and the leader like one who serves. For who is greater\, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.  You are those who have stood by me in my trials; and I confer on you\, just as my Father has conferred on me\, a kingdom\, so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom\, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Simon\, Simon\, listen! Satan has demanded to sift all of you like wheat\, but I have prayed for you that your own faith may not fail; and you\, when once you have turned back\, strengthen your brothers.NarratorAnd Peter said to Jesus\, PeterLord\, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death! NarratorJesus said\, JesusI tell you\, Peter\, the cock will not crow this day\, until you have denied three times that you know me. NarratorJesus said to his apostles\, JesusWhen I sent you out without a purse\, bag\, or sandals\, did you lack anything? NarratorThey said\, DiscipleNo\, not a thing. NarratorJesus said to them\, JesusBut now\, the one who has a purse must take it\, and likewise a bag. And the one who has no sword must sell his cloak and buy one. For I tell you\, this scripture must be fulfilled in me\, “And he was counted among the lawless”; and indeed what is written about me is being fulfilled. NarratorThey said\, DiscipleLord\, look\, here are two swords. NarratorHe replied\, JesusIt is enough. NarratorJesus came out and went\, as was his custom\, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him. When he reached the place\, he said to them\, JesusPray that you may not come into the time of trial. NarratorThen he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw\, knelt down\, and prayed\, JesusFather\, if you are willing\, remove this cup from me; yet\, not my will but yours be done. NarratorThen an angel from heaven appeared to him and gave him strength. In his anguish he prayed more earnestly\, and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.  When he got up from prayer\, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief\, and he said to them\,JesusWhy are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you may not come into the time of trial. NarratorWhile Jesus was still speaking\, suddenly a crowd came\, and the one called Judas\, one of the twelve\, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him; but Jesus said to him\, JesusJudas\, is it with a kiss that you are betraying the Son of Man? NarratorWhen those who were around Jesus saw what was coming\, they asked\, DiscipleLord\, should we strike with the sword? NarratorThen one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear. But Jesus said\, JesusNo more of this! NarratorAnd he touched the slave’s ear and healed him.  Then Jesus said to the chief priests\, the officers of the temple police\, and the elders who had come for him\,JesusHave you come out with swords and clubs as if I were a bandit? When I was with you day after day in the temple\, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour\, and the power of darkness! NarratorThen the crowd seized Jesus and led him away.  The crowd brought Jesus into the high priest’s house. But Peter was following at a distance. When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together\, Peter sat among them. Then a servant-girl\, seeing Peter in the firelight\, stared at him and said\,Servant 1This man also was with him. NarratorBut Peter denied it\, saying\, PeterWoman\, I do not know him. NarratorA little later someone else\, on seeing Peter\, said\, Servant 2You also are one of them. NarratorBut Peter said\, PeterMan\, I am not! NarratorThen about an hour later still another kept insisting\, Servant 3Surely this man also was with the prisoner; for he is a Galilean. NarratorBut Peter said\, PeterMan\, I do not know what you are talking about! NarratorAt that moment\, while Peter was still speaking\, the cock crowed. The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word of the Lord\, how Jesus had said to him\, JesusBefore the cock crows today\, you will deny me three times. NarratorAnd Peter went out and wept bitterly.  Now the men who were holding Jesus began to mock him and beat him; they also blindfolded him and kept asking him\,Soldier 1Prophesy! Soldier 2Who is it that struck you? NarratorThey kept heaping many other insults on Jesus.  When day came\, the assembly of the elders of the people\, both chief priests and scribes\, gathered together\, and they brought Jesus to their council. They said\,Elder 1If you are the Messiah\, tell us. NarratorJesus replied\, JesusIf I tell you\, you will not believe; and if I question you\, you will not answer. But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God. NarratorAll of them asked\, Elder 2Are you\, then\, the Son of God? NarratorJesus said to them\, JesusYou say that I am. NarratorThen they said\, Elder 3What further testimony do we need? Elder 2We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!  [Luke 23:1-49]NarratorThen the assembly rose as a body and brought Jesus before Pilate. They began to accuse Jesus saying\, Elder 1We found this man perverting our nation\, Elder 2forbidding us to pay taxes to the emperor\, Elder 3and saying that he himself is the Messiah\, a king. NarratorThen Pilate asked Jesus\, PilateAre you the king of the Jews? NarratorJesus answered\, JesusYou say so. NarratorThen Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds\, PilateI find no basis for an accusation against this man. NarratorBut they were insistent and said\, Elder 1He stirs up the people Elder 2by teaching throughout all Judea\, Elder 3from Galilee where he began even to this place. NarratorWhen Pilate heard this\, he asked whether the man was a Galilean. And when he learned that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction\, Pilate sent Jesus off to Herod\, who was himself in Jerusalem at that time.  When Herod saw Jesus\, he was very glad\, for he had been wanting to see him for a long time\, because he had heard about Jesus and was hoping to see him perform some sign. Herod questioned him at some length\, but Jesus gave him no answer. The chief priests and the scribes stood by\, vehemently accusing him. Even Herod with his soldiers treated Jesus with contempt and mocked him; then Herod put an elegant robe on Jesus\, and sent him back to Pilate. That same day Herod and Pilate became friends with each other; before this they had been enemies. Pilate then called together the chief priests\, the leaders\, and the people\, and said to them\,PilateYou brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and here I have examined him in your presence and have not found this man guilty of any of your charges against him. Neither has Herod\, for he sent him back to us. Indeed\, this man has done nothing to deserve death. I will therefore have him flogged and release him. NarratorThen the elders all shouted out together\, Elder 2Away with this fellow! Elder 3Release Barabbas for us! Narrator(Barabbas was a man who had been put in prison for an insurrection that had taken place in the city\, and for murder.)  Pilate\, wanting to release Jesus\, addressed them again; but they kept shouting\,Elder 1Crucify\, crucify him! NarratorA third time Pilate said to them\, PilateWhy\, what evil has he done? I have found in him no ground for the sentence of death; I will therefore have him flogged and then release him. NarratorBut the Elders kept urgently demanding with loud shouts that Jesus should be crucified; and their voices prevailed. So Pilate gave his verdict that their demand should be granted. Pilate released the man they asked for\, the one who had been put in prison for insurrection and murder\, and he handed Jesus over as they wished.  As they led Jesus away\, they seized a man\, Simon of Cyrene\, who was coming from the country\, and they laid the cross on him\, and made him carry it behind Jesus. A great number of the people followed him\, and among them were women who were beating their breasts and wailing for him. But Jesus turned to them and said\,JesusDaughters of Jerusalem\, do not weep for me\, but weep for yourselves and for your children. For the days are surely coming when they will say\, “Blessed are the barren\, and the wombs that never bore\, and the breasts that never nursed\,” Then they will begin to say to the mountains\, “Fall on us”; and to the hills\, “Cover us.” For if they do this when the wood is green\, what will happen when it is dry? NarratorTwo others also\, who were criminals\, were led away to be put to death with Jesus.  All stand. When they came to the place that is called The Skull\, they crucified Jesus there with the criminals\, one on his right and one on his left. Then Jesus said\,JesusFather\, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing. NarratorAnd they cast lots to divide his clothing. And the people stood by\, watching; but the leaders scoffed at him\, saying\, Elder 1He saved others; Elder 2let him save himself Elder 3if he is the Messiah of God\, his chosen one! NarratorThe soldiers also mocked him\, coming up and offering him sour wine\, and saying\, Soldier 1If you are the King of the Jews\, Soldier 2save yourself! NarratorThere was also an inscription over Jesus that read\, “This is the King of the Jews.”  One of the criminals who were hanged there kept deriding Jesus and saying\,Criminal 1Are you not the Messiah? Save yourself and us! NarratorBut the other rebuked him saying\, Criminal 2Do you not fear God\, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed have been condemned justly\, for we are getting what we deserve for our deeds\, but this man has done nothing wrong. NarratorThen he said\, Criminal 2Jesus\, remember me when you come into your kingdom. NarratorJesus replied\, JesusTruly I tell you\, today you will be with me in Paradise. NarratorIt was now about noon\, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon\, while the sun’s light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Then Jesus\, crying with a loud voice\, said\, JesusFather\, into your hands I commend my spirit. NarratorHaving said this\, he breathed his last.  Silence may be kept. When the centurion saw what had taken place\, he praised God and said\,CenturionCertainly this man was innocent. NarratorAnd when all the crowds who had gathered there for this spectacle saw what had taken place\, they returned home\, beating their breasts. But all Jesus’ acquaintances\, including the women who had followed him from Galilee\, stood at a distance\, watching these things. NarratorNow there was a good and righteous man named Joseph\, who\, though a member of the council\, had not agreed to their plan and action. He came from the Jewish town of Arimathea\, and he was waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God. This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Joseph took the body down\, wrapped it in a linen cloth\, and laid it in a rock-hewn tomb where no one had ever been laid.  It was the day of Preparation\, and the sabbath was beginning. The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed\, and they saw the tomb and how his body was laid. Then they returned\, and prepared spices and ointments. On the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament\, New Testament and Gospel readings are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicized Edition\, copyright 1989\, 1995\, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

We have masks available for you\, if you want. \n\n\n\nThis service will have the Palm Liturgy for the entrance rite\, but will not have the festive procession. \n\n\n\nPassion\n\n\n\nPassion is the redemptive suffering of Jesus Christ in the events surrounding his death. The term is from the Latin passio\, “suffering.” A gospel narrative of the Passion is called the Passion. It may also be called the Passion gospel or the Passion narrative. It is read liturgically during Holy Week. \n\n\n\nThe accounts of Matthew\, Mark\, or Luke are read on the Sunday of the Passion\, also called Palm Sunday (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 273)\, in different years of the three-year eucharistic lectionary. \n\n\n\nSt. John’s Passion is read every year on Good Friday (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 277). \n\n\n\nThe narratives are often read dramatically with different readers taking the parts of various participants. \n\n\n\nPalm Sunday (The Sunday of the Passion)\n\n\n\nPalm Sunday is the Sunday before Easter at which Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:1-11\, Mark 11:1-11a\, Luke 19:29-40) and Jesus’ Passion on the cross (Mt 26:36-27:66\, Mk 14:32-15:47\, Lk 22:39-23:56) are recalled. It is also known as the Sunday of the Passion. \n\n\n\nPalm Sunday is the first day of Holy Week. Red is the liturgical color for the day. \n\n\n\nThe observance of Palm Sunday in Jerusalem was witnessed by the pilgrim Egeria in about 381-384. During this observance there was a procession of people down the Mount of Olives into Jerusalem. The people waved branches of palms or olive trees as they walked. They sang psalms\, including Psalm 118\, and shouted the antiphon (refrain)\, “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” The Palm Sunday observance was generally accepted throughout the church by the twelfth century. \n\n\n\nThe liturgy of the palms is the entrance rite for the service. The congregation may gather at a place apart from the church and process to the church after the blessing of the branches of palm or other trees (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 270). The liturgy of the palms includes a reading of one of the gospel accounts of Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem. After the entrance rite\, the service changes focus abruptly from the triumphal entry into Jerusalem to the solemnity of the Passion. \n\n\n\nEucharist\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ’s body and blood\, and the principal act of Christian worship. The term is from the Greek\, “thanksgiving.” \n\n\n\nJesus instituted the Eucharist “on the night when he was betrayed.” At the Last Supper he shared the bread and cup of wine at a sacred meal with his disciples. He identified the bread with his body and the wine with his blood of the new covenant. Jesus commanded his disciples to “do this” in remembrance of him (see 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Mark 14:22-25; Matthew 26:26-29; Luke 22:14-20). \n\n\n\nChrist’s sacrifice is made present by the Eucharist\, and in it we are united to his one self-offering (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 859). The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold Eucharistic action of taking\, blessing\, breaking\, and sharing. Christ’s body and blood are really present in the sacrament of the Eucharist and received by faith. Christ’s presence is also known in the gathered eucharistic community. \n\n\n\nIn the Book of Common Prayer\, the whole service is entitled the Holy Eucharist. \n\n\n\n\nThe first part of the service is designated the Word of God. It usually includes the entrance rite\, the lessons and gradual psalm\, the gospel\, the sermon\, the Nicene Creed\, the Prayers of the People\, the confession of sin and absolution\, and the Peace.\n\n\n\nThe second portion of the service is designated the Holy Communion. It includes the offertory\, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving\, the communion of the people\, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal.\n\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is also called the Lord’s Supper\, Holy Communion\, the Divine Liturgy\, the Mass\, and the Great Offertory (BCP\, p. 859). \n\n\n\nThe Hymnal 1982 includes a section with a variety of hymns for the Holy Eucharist (Numbers 300 through 347)\, including “Come\, risen Lord\, and deign to be our guest” (305 and 306)\, “My God\, thy table now is spread” (321)\, “Now\, my tongue\, the mystery telling” (329 through 331)\, and “I am the bread of life” (335). \n\n\n\n(Above taken from Eucharist .)

The members of C.A. are all recovering addicts who maintain their individual sobriety by working with others. We come from various social\, ethnic\, economic and religious backgrounds\, but what we have in common is addiction. \n\n\n\nThe only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances. \n\n\n\nAnyone who wants to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances (including alcohol and other drugs) is welcome. \n\n\n\nThere are no dues or fees for membership; we are fully self-supporting through our own contributions. \n\n\n\nWe do ask for voluntary contributions at meetings to cover expenses such as coffee\, rent\, literature and services to help those who are still suffering. However\, newcomers need not feel obligated to contribute. We do not accept donations from organizations or individuals outside the Fellowship. \n\n\n\nWe are not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution. \n\n\n\nIn order to maintain our integrity and avoid any possible complications\, we are not affiliated with any outside organization.

Our individual members may have opinions of their own\, but C.A. as a whole has no opinion on outside issues. We are not affiliated with any rehabs\, recovery houses or hospitals\, but many do refer their patients to Cocaine Anonymous to maintain their sobriety. \n\n\n\nOur primary purpose is to stay free from cocaine and all other mind-altering substances and to help others achieve the same freedom. \n\n\n\nThe only purpose of Cocaine Anonymous is to offer recovery to individuals who are suffering from addiction. Our experience has shown that the most effective way to attain and maintain sobriety is to work with others suffering from the same malady. \n\n\n\nWe use the Twelve-Step recovery program because it has already been proven that the Twelve-Step recovery program works. \n\n\n\nCocaine Anonymous\n\n\n\nWelcome to Cocaine Anonymous . We are all here for the same reason—our inability to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances. The first step towards solving any problem is admitting that there is a problem. \n\n\n\n12 steps of Cocaine Anonymous\n\n\n\n\nWe admitted we were powerless over cocaine and all other mind-altering substances—that our lives had become unmanageable.\n\n\n\nCame to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.\n\n\n\nMade a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.\n\n\n\nMade a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.\n\n\n\nAdmitted to God\, to ourselves\, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.\n\n\n\nWere entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.\n\n\n\nHumbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.\n\n\n\nMade a list of all persons we had harmed\, and became willing to make amends to them all.\n\n\n\nMade direct amends to such people wherever possible\, except when to do so would injure them or others.\n\n\n\nContinued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.\n\n\n\nSought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him\, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.\n\n\n\nHaving had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps\, we tried to carry this message to addicts\, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

Consider him who endured such hostility against himself from sinners\, so that you may not grow weary or lose heart. \n\n\n\nJohn 13:21-32 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nAfter saying this Jesus was troubled in spirit\, and declared\, “Very truly\, I tell you\, one of you will betray me.” The disciples looked at one another\, uncertain of whom he was speaking. One of his disciples—the one whom Jesus loved—was reclining next to him; Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask Jesus of whom he was speaking. So while reclining next to Jesus\, he asked him\, “Lord\, who is it?” Jesus answered\, “It is the one to whom I give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread\, he gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot. After he received the piece of bread\, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him\, “Do quickly what you are going to do.” Now no one at the table knew why he said this to him. Some thought that\, because Judas had the common purse\, Jesus was telling him\, “Buy what we need for the festival”; or\, that he should give something to the poor. So\, after receiving the piece of bread\, he immediately went out. And it was night. \n\n\n\nWhen he had gone out\, Jesus said\, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified\, and God has been glorified in him. If God has been glorified in him\, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament\, New Testament and Gospel readings are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicized Edition\, copyright 1989\, 1995\, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

Join Fr. Jed to delve deeper into scripture and grow in the knowledge and love of God.  \n\n\n\nBible study will be at 11:00 am. We will be studying the readings for the coming Sunday.  \n\n\n\nWatch for last-minute announcements about changes on our Facebook page. There are times this study may have to be changed or cancelled at the last moment. \n\n\n\nIf you would like to join\, but this time doesn’t work for you\, please let Fr. Jed know after August 2023. We can look at adding and/or changing the time of the study. \n\n\n\nThe Bible\n\n\n\nThe Bible are the Holy Scriptures of the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) and Christian Scriptures (New Testament)\, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit\, containing all things necessary to salvation. \n\n\n\nThe Hebrew Scriptures reveals God’s mighty acts in creation\, the deliverance of the people of Israel from bondage in Egypt\, and the making of the old covenant with the chosen people. God’s saving will for his people is made known in the Hebrew Scriptures through the gift of the Law in the Ten Commandments and through the witness of the prophets. \n\n\n\nThe Christian Scriptures describe the life\, death\, and resurrection of Jesus Christ\, the Messiah\, whose coming was foretold in the Hebrew Scriptures. It also tells the story of the creation of the Christian church through the gift of the Holy Spirit and presents the new covenant\, based on love\, which is the new relationship with God given by Jesus Christ to all who believe in him. (Book of Common Prayer\, pp. 850-851). \n\n\n\nThe Apocrypha\n\n\n\nThe additional books of the Apocrypha\, written by people of the old covenant\, are often included in the Bible. Although selections from the Apocrypha are used in the worship of the Episcopal Church\, the Apocryphal books are not generally considered of equal scriptural authority in Anglicanism with the Hebrew Scriptures and Christian Scriptures. \n\n\n\nTranslations used in the Episcopal Church\n\n\n\nThe translations of the Bible authorized for use in the worship of the Episcopal Church are the following: \n\n\n\n\nThe King James Version (Authorized Version)\, together with the Marginal Readings authorized for use by the General Convention of 1901\n\n\n\nThe English Revision of 1881\n\n\n\nThe American Revision of 1901\n\n\n\nThe Revised Standard Version of 1952\n\n\n\nThe Jerusalem Bible of 1966\n\n\n\nThe New English Bible with the Apocrypha of 1970\n\n\n\nThe 1976 Good News Bible (Today’s English Version)\n\n\n\nThe New American Bible (1970)\n\n\n\nThe Revised Standard Version\, an Ecumenical Edition\, known as the “R.S.V.

Find the stillness and peace of God in the midst of the week.  \n\n\n\nWatch for last-minute announcements about changes on our Facebook page. There are times this service may have to be changed or cancelled at the last moment. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you when you can join us at the Eucharist.  \n\n\n\nEucharist\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ’s body and blood\, and the principal act of Christian worship. The term is from the Greek\, “thanksgiving.” \n\n\n\nJesus instituted the Eucharist “on the night when he was betrayed.” At the Last Supper he shared the bread and cup of wine at a sacred meal with his disciples. He identified the bread with his body and the wine with his blood of the new covenant. Jesus commanded his disciples to “do this” in remembrance of him (see 1 Cor 11:23-26; Mk 14:22-25; Mt 26:26-29; Lk 22:14-20). \n\n\n\nChrist’s sacrifice is made present by the Eucharist\, and in it we are united to his one self-offering (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 859). The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold Eucharistic action of taking\, blessing\, breaking\, and sharing. Christ’s body and blood are really present in the sacrament of the Eucharist and received by faith. Christ’s presence is also known in the gathered eucharistic community. \n\n\n\nIn the Book of Common Prayer\, the whole service is entitled the Holy Eucharist. \n\n\n\n\nThe first part of the service is designated the Word of God. It usually includes the entrance rite\, the lessons and gradual psalm\, the gospel\, the sermon\, the Nicene Creed\, the Prayers of the People\, the confession of sin and absolution\, and the Peace.\n\n\n\nThe second portion of the service is designated the Holy Communion. It includes the offertory\, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving\, the communion of the people\, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal.\n\n\n\n\nThe Eucharist is also called the Lord’s Supper\, Holy Communion\, the Divine Liturgy\, the Mass\, and the Great Offertory (BCP\, p. 859). \n\n\n\nThe Hymnal 1982 includes a section with a variety of hymns for the Holy Eucharist (Numbers 300 through 347)\, including “Come\, risen Lord\, and deign to be our guest” (305 and 306)\, “My God\, thy table now is spread” (321)\, “Now\, my tongue\, the mystery telling” (329 through 331)\, and “I am the bread of life” (335). \n\n\n\n(Above taken from Eucharist.)

Amen. \n\n\n\nLessons\n\n\n\nLessons appointed for use for this day from the Revised Common Lectionary (Episcopal version). \n\n\n\nExodus 12:1-4(5-10)11-14 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nThe Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt: This month shall mark for you the beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year for you. Tell the whole congregation of Israel that on the tenth of this month they are to take a lamb for each family\, a lamb for each household. If a household is too small for a whole lamb\, it shall join its closest neighbor in obtaining one; the lamb shall be divided in proportion to the number of people who eat of it.[Your lamb shall be without blemish\, a year-old male; you may take it from the sheep or from the goats. You shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month; then the whole assembled congregation of Israel shall slaughter it at twilight. They shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. They shall eat the lamb that same night; they shall eat it roasted over the fire with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water\, but roasted over the fire\, with its head\, legs\, and inner organs. You shall let none of it remain until the morning; anything that remains until the morning you shall burn.]This is how you shall eat it: your loins girded\, your sandals on your feet\, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it hurriedly. It is the passover of the Lord. For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night\, and I will strike down every firstborn in the land of Egypt\, both human beings and animals; on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord. The blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you live: when I see the blood\, I will pass over you\, and no plague shall destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt. This day shall be a day of remembrance for you. You shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord; throughout your generations you shall observe it as a perpetual ordinance. \n\n\n\nPsalm 116:1\, 10-17 (BCP)\n\n\n\nDilexi\, quoniam \n\n\n\n1            I love the Lord\, because he has heard the voice of my supplication\, *because he has inclined his ear to me whenever I called upon him. \n\n\n\n10          How shall I repay the Lord*for all the good things he has done for me? \n\n\n\n11          I will lift up the cup of salvation *and call upon the Name of the Lord.  \n\n\n\n12          I will fulfill my vows to the Lord*in the presence of all his people.  \n\n\n\n13          Precious in the sight of the Lord*is the death of his servants.  \n\n\n\n14          O Lord\, I am your servant; *I am your servant and the child of your handmaid;you have freed me from my bonds.  \n\n\n\n15          I will offer you the sacrifice of thanksgiving *and call upon the Name of the Lord.  \n\n\n\n16          I will fulfill my vows to the Lord*in the presence of all his people\,  \n\n\n\n17          In the courts of the Lord’s house\, *in the midst of you\, O Jerusalem.Hallelujah! \n\n\n\n1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nI received from the Lord what I also handed on to you\, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took a loaf of bread\, and when he had given thanks\, he broke it and said\, “This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way he took the cup also\, after supper\, saying\, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this\, as often as you drink it\, in remembrance of me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup\, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. \n\n\n\nJohn 13:1-17\, 31b-35 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nNow before the festival of the Passover\, Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart from this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world\, he loved them to the end. The devil had already put it into the heart of Judas son of Simon Iscariot to betray him. And during supper Jesus\, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands\, and that he had come from God and was going to God\, got up from the table\, took off his outer robe\, and tied a towel around himself. Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel that was tied around him. He came to Simon Peter\, who said to him\, “Lord\, are you going to wash my feet?” Jesus answered\, “You do not know now what I am doing\, but later you will understand.” Peter said to him\, “You will never wash my feet.” Jesus answered\, “Unless I wash you\, you have no share with me.” Simon Peter said to him\, “Lord\, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!” Jesus said to him\, “One who has bathed does not need to wash\, except for the feet\, but is entirely clean. And you are clean\, though not all of you.” For he knew who was to betray him; for this reason he said\, “Not all of you are clean.” After he had washed their feet\, had put on his robe\, and had returned to the table\, he said to them\, “Do you know what I have done to you? You call me Teacher and Lord—and you are right\, for that is what I am. So if I\, your Lord and Teacher\, have washed your feet\, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have set you an example\, that you also should do as I have done to you. Very truly\, I tell you\, servants are not greater than their master\, nor are messengers greater than the one who sent them. If you know these things\, you are blessed if you do them. Now the Son of Man has been glorified\, and God has been glorified in him. If God has been glorified in him\, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. Little children\, I am with you only a little longer. You will look for me; and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you\, ‘Where I am going\, you cannot come.’ I give you a new commandment\, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you\, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples\, if you have love for one another.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament\, New Testament and Gospel readings are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicized Edition\, copyright 1989\, 1995\, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

We look forward to seeing you at this 12:00 noon service of Holy Eucharist with foot washing at Church of the Redeemer. It is in-person only. \n\n\n\nWhile not required\, you may wear a mask when in the building. We have masks available for you\, if you want. \n\n\n\nThis service will not have the stripping of the altar\, as there is still a service this evening. \n\n\n\nMaundy Thursday\n\n\n\nThe Thursday in Holy Week is called Maundy Thursday. It is part of the Triduum\, or three holy days before Easter. The name comes from the Latin phrase mandatum novum\, “new commandment\,” taken from John 13:34. The ceremony of washing feet was also referred to as “the Maundy.” Maundy Thursday celebrations also commemorate the institution of the eucharist by Jesus “on the night he was betrayed.” \n\n\n\nEgeria\, a fourth-century pilgrim to Jerusalem\, describes elaborate celebrations and observances in that city on Maundy Thursday. Special celebration of the institution of the eucharist on Maundy Thursday is attested by the Council of Hippo in 381.  \n\n\n\nFoot Washing\n\n\n\nThe washing of feet was a menial act of hospitality in the Hebrew Scriptures (see Genesis 18:4\, 19:2). It was often performed for guests by a servant or the wife of the host. \n\n\n\nThe Gospel of John (13:1-17) records that Jesus washed the feet of the disciples at the Last Supper. Jesus urged the disciples to follow his example of generous and humble service. They should wash one another’s feet\, as their feet had been washed by Jesus\, their Lord and Teacher. \n\n\n\nJesus’ washing of the disciples’ feet was a lived expression of his teaching that “whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all” (Mark 10:43-44). The foot-washing also expressed Jesus’ “new commandment” for his disciples to love one another\, as he had loved them (John 13:34). The washing of feet continued in the early Christian church.

We look forward to seeing you at this 7:00 pm service of Holy Eucharist with foot washing at Church of the Redeemer. It is in-person and on-line. \n\n\n\nWhile not required\, you may wear a mask when in the building. We have masks available for you\, if you want. \n\n\n\nThis service will conclude with the stripping of the altar and procession to the garden of repose. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaundy Thursday\n\n\n\nThe Thursday in Holy Week is called Maundy Thursday. It is part of the Triduum\, or three holy days before Easter. The name comes from the Latin phrase mandatum novum\, “new commandment\,” taken from John 13:34. The ceremony of washing feet was also referred to as “the Maundy.” Maundy Thursday celebrations also commemorate the institution of the eucharist by Jesus “on the night he was betrayed.” \n\n\n\nEgeria\, a fourth-century pilgrim to Jerusalem\, describes elaborate celebrations and observances in that city on Maundy Thursday. Special celebration of the institution of the eucharist on Maundy Thursday is attested by the Council of Hippo in 381.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFoot Washing\n\n\n\nThe washing of feet was a menial act of hospitality in the Hebrew Scriptures (see Genesis 18:4\, 19:2). It was often performed for guests by a servant or the wife of the host. \n\n\n\nThe Gospel of John (13:1-17) records that Jesus washed the feet of the disciples at the Last Supper. Jesus urged the disciples to follow his example of generous and humble service. They should wash one another’s feet\, as their feet had been washed by Jesus\, their Lord and Teacher. \n\n\n\nJesus’ washing of the disciples’ feet was a lived expression of his teaching that “whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all” (Mark 10:43-44). The foot-washing also expressed Jesus’ “new commandment” for his disciples to love one another\, as he had loved them (John 13:34). The washing of feet continued in the early Christian church. The requirements for enrollment on the list of widows includes the expectation that a widow would have “washed the saints’ feet” (1 Timothy 4:9-10). The ceremonial washing of feet is mentioned by Augustine of Hippo (354-430).

This follows the evening Maundy Thursday service at Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Kenmore\, Washington. We invite you to spend time in prayer at the altar of repose in a holy hour watch. \n\n\n\nCan you watch with Jesus for one hour? \n\n\n\nHoly Hour Watch\n\n\n\nWatch\n\n\n\nA watch is a period of “staying awake” for spiritual reasons. Traditionally\, watches have been kept before the Blessed Sacrament on the night of Maundy Thursday at the “Altar of Repose.” The term derives in part from Christ’s question to his disciples at Gethsemane\, “Could you not watch with me for an hour?” (Mathew 26:40).

Amen. \n\n\n\nLessons\n\n\n\nLessons appointed for use for this day from the Revised Common Lectionary (Episcopal version). \n\n\n\nIsaiah 52:13—53:12 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nSee\, my servant shall prosper; he shall be exalted and lifted up\, and shall be very high. Just as there were many who were astonished at him—so marred was his appearance\, beyond human semblance\, and his form beyond that of mortals—so he shall startle many nations; kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them they shall see\, and that which they had not heard they shall contemplate. Who has believed what we have heard? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? For he grew up before him like a young plant\, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him\, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by others; a man of suffering and acquainted with infirmity; and as one from whom others hide their faces he was despised\, and we held him of no account. Surely he has borne our infirmities and carried our diseases; yet we accounted him stricken\, struck down by God\, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions\, crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the punishment that made us whole\, and by his bruises we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have all turned to our own way\, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed\, and he was afflicted\, yet he did not open his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter\, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent\, so he did not open his mouth. By a perversion of justice he was taken away. Who could have imagined his future? For he was cut off from the land of the living\, stricken for the transgression of my people. They made his grave with the wicked and his tomb with the rich\, although he had done no violence\, and there was no deceit in his mouth. Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him with pain. When you make his life an offering for sin\, he shall see his offspring\, and shall prolong his days; through him the will of the Lord shall prosper. Out of his anguish he shall see light; he shall find satisfaction through his knowledge. The righteous one\, my servant\, shall make many righteous\, and he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore I will allot him a portion with the great\, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out himself to death\, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many\, and made intercession for the transgressors. \n\n\n\nPsalm 22 (BCP)\n\n\n\nDeus\, Deus meus \n\n\n\n1 My God\, my God\, why have you forsaken me? *and are so far from my cry and from the words of my distress?  \n\n\n\n2 O my God\, I cry in the daytime\, but you do not answer; *by night as well\, but I find no rest.  \n\n\n\n3 Yet you are the Holy One\, *enthroned upon the praises of Israel.  \n\n\n\n4 Our forefathers put their trust in you; *they trusted\, and you delivered them.  \n\n\n\n5 They cried out to you and were delivered; *they trusted in you and were not put to shame.  \n\n\n\n6 But as for me\, I am a worm and no man\, *scorned by all and despised by the people.  \n\n\n\n7 All who see me laugh me to scorn; *they curl their lips and wag their heads\, saying\,  \n\n\n\n8 “He trusted in the Lord; let him deliver him; *let him rescue him\, if he delights in him.”  \n\n\n\n9 Yet you are he who took me out of the womb\, *and kept me safe upon my mother’s breast.  \n\n\n\n10 I have been entrusted to you ever since I was born; *you were my God when I was still in my mother’s womb.  \n\n\n\n11 Be not far from me\, for trouble is near\, *and there is none to help.  \n\n\n\n12 Many young bulls encircle me; *strong bulls of Bashan surround me.  \n\n\n\n13 They open wide their jaws at me\, *like a ravening and a roaring lion.  \n\n\n\n14 I am poured out like water; all my bones are out of joint; *my heart within my breast is melting wax.  \n\n\n\n15 My mouth is dried out like a pot-sherd; my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; *and you have laid me in the dust of the grave.  \n\n\n\n16 Packs of dogs close me in\, and gangs of evildoers circle around me; *they pierce my hands and my feet; I can count all my bones.  \n\n\n\n17 They stare and gloat over me; *they divide my garments among them; they cast lots for my clothing.  \n\n\n\n18 Be not far away\, O Lord; *you are my strength; hasten to help me.  \n\n\n\n19 Save me from the sword\, *my life from the power of the dog.  \n\n\n\n20 Save me from the lion’s mouth\, *my wretched body from the horns of wild bulls.  \n\n\n\n21 I will declare your Name to my brethren; *in the midst of the congregation I will praise you.  \n\n\n\n22 Praise the Lord\, you that fear him; *stand in awe of him\, O offspring of Israel; all you of Jacob’s line\, give glory.  \n\n\n\n23 For he does not despise nor abhor the poor in their poverty; neither does he hide his face from them; *but when they cry to him he hears them.  \n\n\n\n24 My praise is of him in the great assembly; *I will perform my vows in the presence of those who worship him.  \n\n\n\n25 The poor shall eat and be satisfied\, and those who seek the Lord shall praise him: *“May your heart live for ever!”  \n\n\n\n26 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord\, *and all the families of the nations shall bow before him.  \n\n\n\n27 For kingship belongs to the Lord; *he rules over the nations.  \n\n\n\n28 To him alone all who sleep in the earth bow down in worship; *all who go down to the dust fall before him.  \n\n\n\n29 My soul shall live for him; my descendants shall serve him; *they shall be known as the Lord’s for ever.  \n\n\n\n30 They shall come and make known to a people yet unborn *the saving deeds that he has done. \n\n\n\nHebrews 10:16-25 (NRSV)\n\n\n\n“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days\, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts\, and I will write them on their minds\,” he also adds\, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.” Where there is forgiveness of these\, there is no longer any offering for sin. Therefore\, my friends\, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus\, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain (that is\, through his flesh)\, and since we have a great priest over the house of God\, let us approach with a true heart in full assurance of faith\, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering\, for he who has promised is faithful. And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds\, not neglecting to meet together\, as is the habit of some\, but encouraging one another\, and all the more as you see the Day approaching. \n\n\n\nJohn 18:1—19:42 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nNarratorJesus went out with his disciples across the Kidron valley to a place where there was a garden\, which he and his disciples entered. Now Judas\, who betrayed him\, also knew the place\, because Jesus often met there with his disciples. So Judas brought a detachment of soldiers together with police from the chief priests and the Pharisees\, and they came there with lanterns and torches and weapons. Then Jesus\, knowing all that was to happen to him\, came forward and asked them\,JesusWhom are you looking for? NarratorThey answered\,SoldierJesus of Nazareth.NarratorJesus replied\,JesusI am he.NarratorJudas\, who betrayed him\, was standing with them. When Jesus said to them\, “I am he\,” they stepped back and fell to the ground. Again Jesus asked them\,JesusWhom are you looking for?NarratorAnd they said\,SoldierJesus of Nazareth.NarratorJesus answered\,JesusI told you that I am he. So if you are looking for me\, let these men go.NarratorThis was to fulfill the word that he had spoken\,JesusI did not lose a single one of those whom you gave me.NarratorThen Simon Peter\, who had a sword\, drew it\, struck the high priest’s slave\, and cut off his right ear. The slave’s name was Malchus. Jesus said to Peter\,JesusPut your sword back into its sheath. Am I not to drink the cup that the Father has given me?NarratorSo the soldiers\, their officer\, and the Jewish police arrested Jesus and bound him. First they took him to Annas\, who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas\, the high priest that year. Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it was better to have one person die for the people.GuardYou are not also one of this man’s disciples\, are you?NarratorPeter said\,PeterI am not.NarratorNow the slaves and the police had made a charcoal fire because it was cold\, and they were standing around it and warming themselves. Peter also was standing with them and warming himself.JesusI have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple\, where all the Jews come together. I have said nothing in secret. Why do you ask me? Ask those who heard what I said to them; they know what I said.NarratorWhen he had said this\, one of the police standing nearby struck Jesus on the face\, saying\,PoliceIs that how you answer the high priest?NarratorJesus answered\,JesusIf I have spoken wrongly\, testify to the wrong. But if I have spoken rightly\, why do you strike me?NarratorThen Annas sent Jesus bound to Caiaphas the high priest.GuardYou are not also one of Jesus’ disciples\, are you?NarratorPeter denied it and said\,PeterI am not.NarratorOne of the slaves of the high priest\, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off\, asked\,SlaveDid I not see you in the garden with Jesus?NarratorAgain Peter denied it\, and at that moment the cock crowed.PilateWhat accusation do you bring against this man?NarratorThey answered\,Elder 1If this man were not a criminal\, we would not have handed him over to you.NarratorPilate said to them\,PilateTake him yourselves and judge him according to your law.NarratorThe Jews replied\,Elder 2We are not permitted to put anyone to death.Narrator(This was to fulfill what Jesus had said when he indicated the kind of death he was to die.)PilateAre you the King of the Jews? NarratorJesus answered\,JesusDo you ask this on your own\, or did others tell you about me?NarratorPilate replied\,PilateI am not a Jew\, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me. What have you done?NarratorJesus answered\,JesusMy kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world\, my followers would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is\, my kingdom is not from here.NarratorPilate asked him\,PilateSo you are a king?NarratorJesus answered\,JesusYou say that I am a king. For this I was born\, and for this I came into the world\, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.NarratorPilate asked him\,PilateWhat is truth?NarratorAfter Pilate had said this\, he went out to the Jews again and told them\,PilateI find no case against him. But you have a custom that I release someone for you at the Passover. Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?NarratorThey shouted in reply\,PriestNot this man\, but Barabbas! NarratorNow Barabbas was a bandit.SoldierHail\, King of the Jews!Narratorand striking him on the face.PilateLook\, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no case against him.NarratorSo Jesus came out\, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them\,PilateHere is the man!NarratorWhen the chief priests and the police saw Jesus\, they shouted\,PriestCrucify him!PoliceCrucify him!NarratorPilate said to them\,PilateTake him yourselves and crucify him; I find no case against him.NarratorThe Jews answered him\,PoliceWe have a law\, and according to that law he ought to diePriestbecause he has claimed to be the Son of God.NarratorNow when Pilate heard this\, he was more afraid than ever. He entered his headquarters again and asked Jesus\,PilateWhere are you from?NarratorBut Jesus gave him no answer. Pilate therefore said to him\,PilateDo you refuse to speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you\, and power to crucify you?NarratorJesus answered him\,JesusYou would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above; therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.NarratorFrom then on Pilate tried to release Jesus\, but the Jews cried out\,PriestIf you release this man\, you are no friend of the emperor.PoliceEveryone who claims to be a king sets himself against the emperor.NarratorWhen Pilate heard these words\, he brought Jesus outside and sat on the judge’s bench at a place called The Stone Pavement\, or in Hebrew Gabbatha.PilateHere is your King!NarratorThey cried out\,PriestAway with him!PoliceAway with him!PriestCrucify him!NarratorPilate asked them\,PilateShall I crucify your King?NarratorThe chief priests answered\,PriestWe have no king but the emperor.Narrator  Then Pilate handed Jesus over to them to be crucified.All stand.So they took Jesus; and carrying the cross by himself\, he went out to what is called The Place of the Skull\, which in Hebrew is called Golgotha. There they crucified him\, and with him two others\, one on either side\, with Jesus between them.PriestDo not write\, “The King of the Jews\,” but\, “This man said\, I am King of the Jews.”NarratorPilate answered\,PilateWhat I have written I have written.NarratorWhen the soldiers had crucified Jesus\, they took his clothes and divided them into four parts\, one for each soldier. They also took his tunic; now the tunic was seamless\, woven in one piece from the top. So they said to one another\,SoldierLet us not tear it\, but cast lots for it to see who will get it.NarratorThis was to fulfill what the scripture says\, “They divided my clothes among themselves\, and for my clothing they cast lots.” And that is what the soldiers did.JesusWoman\, here is your son.NarratorThen he said to the disciple\,JesusHere is your mother.NarratorAnd from that hour the disciple took her into his own home.JesusI am thirsty.NarratorA jar full of sour wine was standing there. So they put a sponge full of the wine on a branch of hyssop and held it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the wine\, he said\,JesusIt is finished.Narrator    Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.Silence may be kept.Since it was the day of Preparation\, the Jews did not want the bodies left on the cross during the sabbath\, especially because that sabbath was a day of great solemnity. So they asked Pilate to have the legs of the crucified men broken and the bodies removed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament\, New Testament and Gospel readings are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicized Edition\, copyright 1989\, 1995\, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

A.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution. \n\n\n\nWhat is Alcoholics Anonymous?\n\n\n\nAlcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their experience\, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. \n\n\n\nThe only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect\, denomination\, politics\, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy\, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. \n\n\n\nWhat A.A. does do: \n\n\n\n\nOur primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.\n\n\n\nA.A. members share their experience with anyone seeking help with a drinking problem; they give person-to-person service or “sponsorship” to the alcoholic coming to A.A. from any source.\n\n\n\nThe A.A. program\, set forth in our Twelve Steps\, offers the alcoholic a way to develop a satisfying life without alcohol.\n\n\n\n\nThis program is discussed at A.A. group meetings. \n\n\n\n\nOpen speaker meetings — open to alcoholics and nonalcoholics. (Attendance at an open A.A. meeting is the best way to learn what A.A. is\, what it does\, and what it does not do.) At speaker meetings\, A.A. members “tell their stories.” They describe their experiences with alcohol\, how they came to A.A.\, and how their lives have changed as a result of Alcoholics Anonymous.\n\n\n\nOpen discussion meetings — one member speaks briefly about his or her drinking experience\, and then leads a discussion on A.A. recovery or any drinking-related problem anyone brings up. (Closed meetings are for A.A.s or anyone who may have a drinking problem.)\n\n\n\nClosed discussion meetings — conducted just as open discussions are\, but for alcoholics or prospective A.A.s only.\n\n\n\nStep meetings (usually closed) — discussion of one of the Twelve Steps.

Amen. \n\n\n\nLessons\n\n\n\nLessons appointed for use for this day from the Revised Common Lectionary (Episcopal version). \n\n\n\nFirst Reading\n\n\n\nOne of the following. \n\n\n\nJob 14:1-14 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nA mortal\, born of woman\, few of days and full of trouble\, comes up like a flower and withers\, flees like a shadow and does not last. Do you fix your eyes on such a one? Do you bring me into judgment with you? Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? No one can. Since their days are determined\, and the number of their months is known to you\, and you have appointed the bounds that they cannot pass\, look away from them\, and desist\, that they may enjoy\, like laborers\, their days. For there is hope for a tree\, if it is cut down\, that it will sprout again\, and that its shoots will not cease. Though its root grows old in the earth\, and its stump dies in the ground\, yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth branches like a young plant. But mortals die\, and are laid low; humans expire\, and where are they? As waters fail from a lake\, and a river wastes away and dries up\, so mortals lie down and do not rise again; until the heavens are no more\, they will not awake or be roused out of their sleep. Oh that you would hide me in Sheol\, that you would conceal me until your wrath is past\, that you would appoint me a set time\, and remember me! If mortals die\, will they live again? All the days of my service I would wait until my release should come. \n\n\n\nLamentations 3:1-9\,19-24 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nI am one who has seen affliction under the rod of God’s wrath; he has driven and brought me into darkness without any light; against me alone he turns his hand\, again and again\, all day long. He has made my flesh and my skin waste away\, and broken my bones; he has besieged and enveloped me with bitterness and tribulation; he has made me sit in darkness like the dead of long ago. He has walled me about so that I cannot escape; he has put heavy chains on me; though I call and cry for help\, he shuts out my prayer; he has blocked my ways with hewn stones\, he has made my paths crooked. The thought of my affliction and my homelessness is wormwood and gall!! My soul continually thinks of it and is bowed down within me. \n\n\n\nBut this I call to mind\, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases\, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion\,” says my soul\, “therefore I will hope in him.” \n\n\n\nPsalm 31:1-4\,15-16 (BCP)\n\n\n\n1 In you\, O Lord\, have I taken refuge;  let me never be put to shame; *       deliver me in your righteousness.2 Incline your ear to me; *       make haste to deliver me.3 Be my strong rock\, a castle to keep me safe\,  for you are my crag and my stronghold; *       for the sake of your Name\, lead me and guide me.4 Take me out of the net that they have secretly set for me\, *       for you are my tower of strength.15 My times are in your hand; *       rescue me from the hand of my enemies\,       and from those who persecute me.16 Make your face to shine upon your servant\, *       and in your loving-kindness save me.” \n\n\n\n1 Peter 4:1-8 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nSince therefore Christ suffered in the flesh\, arm yourselves also with the same intention (for whoever has suffered in the flesh has finished with sin)\, so as to live for the rest of your earthly life no longer by human desires but by the will of God. You have already spent enough time in doing what the Gentiles like to do\, living in licentiousness\, passions\, drunkenness\, revels\, carousing\, and lawless idolatry. They are surprised that you no longer join them in the same excesses of dissipation\, and so they blaspheme. But they will have to give an accounting to him who stands ready to judge the living and the dead. For this is the reason the gospel was proclaimed even to the dead\, so that\, though they had been judged in the flesh as everyone is judged\, they might live in the spirit as God does. The end of all things is near; therefore be serious and discipline yourselves for the sake of your prayers. Above all\, maintain constant love for one another\, for love covers a multitude of sins. \n\n\n\nA reading from the Gospels\n\n\n\nOne of the following. \n\n\n\nMatthew 27:57-66 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nWhen it was evening\, there came a rich man from Arimathea\, named Joseph\, who was also a disciple of Jesus. He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus; then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth and laid it in his own new tomb\, which he had hewn in the rock. He then rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb and went away. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there\, sitting opposite the tomb.The next day\, that is\, after the day of Preparation\, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate and said\, “Sir\, we remember what that impostor said while he was still alive\, `After three days I will rise again.’ Therefore command the tomb to be made secure until the third day; otherwise his disciples may go and steal him away\, and tell the people\, `He has been raised from the dead\,’ and the last deception would be worse than the first.” Pilate said to them\, “You have a guard of soldiers; go\, make it as secure as you can.” So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure by sealing the stone. \n\n\n\nJohn 19:38-42 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nAfter these things\, Joseph of Arimathea\, who was a disciple of Jesus\, though a secret one because of his fear of the Jews\, asked Pilate to let him take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission; so he came and removed his body. Nicodemus\, who had at first come to Jesus by night\, also came\, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes\, weighing about a hundred pounds. They took the body of Jesus and wrapped it with the spices in linen cloths\, according to the burial custom of the Jews. Now there was a garden in the place where he was crucified\, and in the garden there was a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid. And so\, because it was the Jewish day of Preparation\, and the tomb was nearby\, they laid Jesus there. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament\, New Testament and Gospel readings are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicized Edition\, copyright 1989\, 1995\, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

We look forward to seeing you at this 9:30 am Holy Saturday service at Church of the Redeemer. It is in-person only. \n\n\n\nWhile not required\, you may wear a mask when in the building. We have masks available for you\, if you want. \n\n\n\nHoly Saturday\n\n\n\nHoly Saturday is the Saturday after Good Friday\, which recalls the day when the crucified Christ visited among the dead while his body lay in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea. \n\n\n\nIn the Episcopal Church there is no eucharist on Holy Saturday. The Book of Common Prayer provides a simple liturgy of the word with collect and readings for the Holy Saturday service. The funeral anthem “In the midst of life” (Book of Common Prayer\, pp. 484 or 492) is used instead of the prayers of the people (Book of Common Prayer\, p. 283). \n\n\n\n\nIn the midst of life we are in death;from whom can we seek help?From you alone\, O Lord\,who by our sins are justly angered. \n\n\n\nHoly God\, Holy and Mighty\,Holy and merciful Savior\,deliver us not into the bitterness of eternal death. \n\n\n\nLord\, you know the secrets of our hearts;shut not your ears to our prayers\,but spare us\, O Lord. \n\n\n\nHoly God\, Holy and Mighty\,Holy and merciful Savior\,deliver us not into the bitterness of eternal death. \n\n\n\nO worthy and eternal Judge\,do not let the pains of deathturn us away from you at our last hour. \n\n\n\nHoly God\, Holy and Mighty\,Holy and merciful Savior\,deliver us not into the bitterness of eternal death. \n\n\n\n\nIn the ancient church\, those preparing for baptism and perhaps others continued the fast they began on Good Friday. Holy Saturday ends at sunset. Fasting and other preparations end at sunset or with the Easter Vigil\, which begins the celebration of Easter.  URL:https://redeemer-kenmore.org/event/in-person-holy-saturday-service/ LOCATION:Nave and Sanctuary at Church of the Redeemer\, 6220 Northeast 181st Street\, Kenmore\, WA\, 98028\, United States CATEGORIES:Liturgy ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://redeemer-kenmore.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Holy-Saturday.avif ORGANIZER;CN="Church Office":MAILTO:office@redeemer-kenmore.org GEO:47.7594575;-122.2595651 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Nave and Sanctuary at Church of the Redeemer 6220 Northeast 181st Street Kenmore WA 98028 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=6220 Northeast 181st Street:geo:-122.2595651,47.7594575 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
