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 .)

The word of the Lord was rare in those days; visions were not widespread. At that time Eli\, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see\, was lying down in his room; the lamp of God had not yet gone out\, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the Lord\, where the ark of God was. Then the Lord called\, “Samuel! Samuel!” and he said\, “Here I am!” and ran to Eli\, and said\, “Here I am\, for you called me.” But he said\, “I did not call; lie down again.” So he went and lay down. The Lord called again\, “Samuel!” Samuel got up and went to Eli\, and said\, “Here I am\, for you called me.” But he said\, “I did not call\, my son; lie down again.” Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord\, and the word of the Lord had not yet been revealed to him. The Lord called Samuel again\, a third time. And he got up and went to Eli\, and said\, “Here I am\, for you called me.” Then Eli perceived that the Lord was calling the boy. Therefore Eli said to Samuel\, “Go\, lie down; and if he calls you\, you shall say\, ‘Speak\, Lord\, for your servant is listening.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place. Now the Lord came and stood there\, calling as before\, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel said\, “Speak\, for your servant is listening.”[Then the Lord said to Samuel\, “See\, I am about to do something in Israel that will make both ears of anyone who hears of it tingle. On that day I will fulfill against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house\, from beginning to end. For I have told him that I am about to punish his house forever\, for the iniquity that he knew\, because his sons were blaspheming God\, and he did not restrain them. Therefore I swear to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli’s house shall not be expiated by sacrifice or offering forever.” Samuel lay there until morning; then he opened the doors of the house of the Lord. Samuel was afraid to tell the vision to Eli. But Eli called Samuel and said\, “Samuel\, my son.” He said\, “Here I am.” Eli said\, “What was it that he told you? Do not hide it from me. May God do so to you and more also\, if you hide anything from me of all that he told you.” So Samuel told him everything and hid nothing from him. Then he said\, “It is the Lord; let him do what seems good to him.” As Samuel grew up\, the Lord was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground. And all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was a trustworthy prophet of the Lord.] \n\n\n\nPsalm 139:1-5\,12-17 (BCP)\n\n\n\nDomine\, probasti \n\n\n\n1 Lord\, you have searched me out and known me; *    you know my sitting down and my rising up; you discern my thoughts from afar.2 You trace my journeys and my resting-places *    and are acquainted with all my ways.3 Indeed\, there is not a word on my lips\, *    but you\, O Lord\, know it altogether.4 You press upon me behind and before *    and lay your hand upon me.5 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; *    it is so high that I cannot attain to it.12 For you yourself created my inmost parts; *    you knit me together in my mother’s womb.13 I will thank you because I am marvelously made; *    your works are wonderful\, and I know it well.14 My body was not hidden from you\, *    while I was being made in secret and woven in the depths of the earth.15 Your eyes beheld my limbs\, yet unfinished in the womb; all of them were written in your book;*    they were fashioned day by day\, when as yet there was none of them.16 How deep I find your thoughts\, O God! *    how great is the sum of them!17 If I were to count them\, they would be more in number than the sand; *    to count them all\, my life span would need to be like yours. \n\n\n\n1 Corinthians 6:12-20 (NRSV)\n\n\n\n“All things are lawful for me\,” but not all things are beneficial. “All things are lawful for me\,” but I will not be dominated by anything. “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food\,” and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is meant not for fornication but for the Lord\, and the Lord for the body. And God raised the Lord and will also raise us by his power. Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Should I therefore take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! Do you not know that whoever is united to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For it is said\, “The two shall be one flesh.” But anyone united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. Shun fornication! Every sin that a person commits is outside the body; but the fornicator sins against the body itself. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you\, which you have from God\, and that you are not your own? For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body. \n\n\n\nJohn 1:43-51 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nJesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him\, “Follow me.” Now Philip was from Bethsaida\, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip found Nathanael and said to him\, “We have found him about whom Moses in the law and also the prophets wrote\, Jesus son of Joseph from Nazareth.” Nathanael said to him\, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him\, “Come and see.” When Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him\, he said of him\, “Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!” Nathanael asked him\, “Where did you get to know me?” Jesus answered\, “I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you.” Nathanael replied\, “Rabbi\, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” Jesus answered\, “Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.” And he said to him\, “Very truly\, I tell you\, you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.” \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.

The burial office is an Easter liturgy. The liturgical color is appropriately white\, and the Paschal candle should be lighted as a visible reminder of Jesus’ resurrection and our hope of life everlasting in Christ. At the Burial of the Dead those who mourn may express grief and sorrow as they share in the community’s expression of faith\, hope\, and mutual support in Jesus Christ. \n\n\n\nThe service will be livestreamed on the Welcome page of this website.

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.

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. Common Bible” (1973)\n\n\n\nThe New International Version (1978)\n\n\n\nThe New Jerusalem Bible (1987)\n\n\n\nThe Revised English Bible (1989)\n\n\n\nThe New Revised Standard Version Bible (1990) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(The above section on the Bible adapted from The Bible.)

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.

We look forward to seeing you at this 10:30 am service of Holy Eucharist 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\nThe service is broadcast live on the Welcome page of this website. \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 .)

Then God said\, “Let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day\, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning\, the first day. \n\n\n\nPsalm 29\n\n\n\nAfferte Domino \n\n\n\n1 Ascribe to the Lord\, you gods\, *       ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.2 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his Name; *       worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters;       the God of glory thunders; *       the Lord is upon the mighty waters.4 The voice of the Lord is a powerful voice; *       the voice of the Lord is a voice of splendor.5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedar trees; *       the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon;6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf\, *       and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox.7 The voice of the Lord splits the flames of fire;       the voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness; *       the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.8 The voice of the Lord makes the oak trees writhe *       and strips the forests bare.9 And in the temple of the Lord *       all are crying\, “Glory!”10 The Lord sits enthroned above the flood; *       the Lord sits enthroned as King for evermore.11 The Lord shall give strength to his people; *       the Lord shall give his people the blessing of peace. \n\n\n\nActs 19:1-7 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nWhile Apollos was in Corinth\, Paul passed through the interior regions and came to Ephesus\, where he found some disciples. He said to them\, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?” They replied\, “No\, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” Then he said\, “Into what then were you baptized?” They answered\, “Into John’s baptism.” Paul said\, “John baptized with the baptism of repentance\, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him\, that is\, in Jesus.” On hearing this\, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. When Paul had laid his hands on them\, the Holy Spirit came upon them\, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied—altogether there were about twelve of them. \n\n\n\nMark 1:4-11 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nJohn the baptizer appeared in the wilderness\, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. And people from the whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem were going out to him\, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan\, confessing their sins. Now John was clothed with camel’s hair\, with a leather belt around his waist\, and he ate locusts and wild honey. He proclaimed\, “The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me; I am not worthy to stoop down and untie the thong of his sandals. I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. And just as he was coming up out of the water\, he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit descending like a dove on him. And a voice came from heaven\, “You are my Son\, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased.” \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.

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.

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.

The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold Eucharistic action of taking\, blessing\, breaking\, and sharing.

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 .)

For as the earth brings forth its shoots\, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to spring up\, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations. For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent\, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest\, until her vindication shines out like the dawn\, and her salvation like a burning torch. The nations shall see your vindication\, and all the kings your glory; and you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will give. You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord\, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. \n\n\n\nPsalm 147 (BCP)\n\n\n\nLaudate Dominum \n\n\n\n1 Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God! *    how pleasant it is to honor him with praise! \n\n\n\n2 The Lord rebuilds Jerusalem; *    he gathers the exiles of Israel. \n\n\n\n3 He heals the brokenhearted *    and binds up their wounds. \n\n\n\n4 He counts the number of the stars *    and calls them all by their names. \n\n\n\n5 Great is our Lord and mighty in power; *    there is no limit to his wisdom. \n\n\n\n6 The Lord lifts up the lowly\, *    but casts the wicked to the ground. \n\n\n\n7 Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; *    make music to our God upon the harp. \n\n\n\n8 He covers the heavens with clouds *    and prepares rain for the earth; \n\n\n\n9 He makes grass to grow upon the mountains *    and green plants to serve mankind. \n\n\n\n10 He provides food for flocks and herds *    and for the young ravens when they cry. \n\n\n\n11 He is not impressed by the might of a horse; *    he has no pleasure in the strength of a man; \n\n\n\n12 But the Lord has pleasure in those who fear him\, *in those who await his gracious favor. \n\n\n\n13 Worship the Lord\, O Jerusalem; *    praise your God\, O Zion; \n\n\n\n14 For he has strengthened the bars of your gates; *    he has blessed your children within you. \n\n\n\n15 He has established peace on your borders; *    he satisfies you with the finest wheat. \n\n\n\n16 He sends out his command to the earth\, *    and his word runs very swiftly. \n\n\n\n17 He gives snow like wool; *    he scatters hoarfrost like ashes. \n\n\n\n18 He scatters his hail like bread crumbs; *    who can stand against his cold? \n\n\n\n19 He sends forth his word and melts them; *    he blows with his wind\, and the waters flow. \n\n\n\n20 He declares his word to Jacob\, *    his statutes and his judgments to Israel. \n\n\n\n21 He has not done so to any other nation; *    to them he has not revealed his judgments. Hallelujah! \n\n\n\nGalatians 3:23-25; 4:4-7 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nNow before faith came\, we were imprisoned and guarded under the law until faith would be revealed. Therefore the law was our disciplinarian until Christ came\, so that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith has come\, we are no longer subject to a disciplinarian. But when the fullness of time had come\, God sent his Son\, born of a woman\, born under the law\, in order to redeem those who were under the law\, so that we might receive adoption as children. And because you are children\, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts\, crying\, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave but a child\, and if a child then also an heir\, through God. \n\n\n\nJohn 1:1-18 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nIn the beginning was the Word\, and the Word was with God\, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him\, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life\, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness\, and the darkness did not overcome it. There was a man sent from God\, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light\, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light\, but he came to testify to the light. The true light\, which enlightens everyone\, was coming into the world. He was in the world\, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. He came to what was his own\, and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received him\, who believed in his name\, he gave power to become children of God\, who were born\, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man\, but of God. And the Word became flesh and lived among us\, and we have seen his glory\, the glory as of a father’s only son\, full of grace and truth. (John testified to him and cried out\, “This was he of whom I said\, ‘He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me.’”) From his fullness we have all received\, grace upon grace. The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son\, who is close to the Father’s heart\, who has made him known. \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.

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\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\nThe problem\, as we see it\, consists of an obsession of the mind and an allergy of the body. The obsession is a continued and irresistible thought of the drugs and the next high. The allergy creates an absolute inability to stop using once we begin. \n\n\n\nWe wish to assure you that there is a solution and that recovery is possible. It begins with abstinence and continues with practicing the Twelve Steps of recovery\, one day at a time. Our program\, the Twelve Steps of Cocaine Anonymous\, is the means by which we move from the problem of addiction to the solution of recovery.

(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.

In the Book of Common Prayer\, the day is also called “The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ.” \n\n\n\nIn the Book of Common Prayer\, Christmas Day is one of the seven principal feasts. The Christmas season lasts twelve days\, from Christmas Day until January 5\, the day before the Epiphany. \n\n\n\nIn many parishes\, the main liturgical celebrations of Christmas take place on Christmas Eve. \n\n\n\n(Above taken from Christmas\, or Christ’s Maesse.) \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\n(Above taken from Eucharist .)

You have multiplied the nation\, you have increased its joy; they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest\, as people exult when dividing plunder. For the yoke of their burden\, and the bar across their shoulders\, the rod of their oppressor\, you have broken as on the day of Midian. For all the boots of the tramping warriors and all the garments rolled in blood shall be burned as fuel for the fire. For a child has been born for us\, a son given to us; authority rests upon his shoulders; and he is named Wonderful Counselor\, Mighty God\, Everlasting Father\, Prince of Peace. His authority shall grow continually\, and there shall be endless peace for the throne of David and his kingdom. He will establish and uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time onward and forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this. \n\n\n\nPsalm 96 or 96:1-4\, 11-12 (BCP)\n\n\n\n1 Sing to the Lord a new song; *    sing to the Lord\, all the whole earth. \n\n\n\n2 Sing to the Lord and bless his Name; *    proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day. \n\n\n\n3 Declare his glory among the nations *    and his wonders among all peoples. \n\n\n\n4 For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; *    he is more to be feared than all gods. \n\n\n\n[5 As for all the gods of the nations\, they are but idols; *    but it is the Lord who made the heavens. \n\n\n\n6 Oh\, the majesty and magnificence of his presence! *    Oh\, the power and the splendor of his sanctuary! \n\n\n\n7 Ascribe to the Lord\, you families of the peoples; *    ascribe to the Lord honor and power. \n\n\n\n8 Ascribe to the Lord the honor due his Name; *    bring offerings and come into his courts. \n\n\n\n9 Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; *    let the whole earth tremble before him. \n\n\n\n10 Tell it out among the nations: “The Lord is King! *    he has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity.”] \n\n\n\n11 Let the heavens rejoice\, and let the earth be glad; let the sea thunder and all that is in it; *    let the field be joyful and all that is therein. \n\n\n\n12 Then shall all the trees of the wood shout for joy before the Lord when he comes\, *    when he comes to judge the earth. \n\n\n\nTitus 2:11-14 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nThe grace of God has appeared\, bringing salvation to all\, training us to renounce impiety and worldly passions\, and in the present age to live lives that are self-controlled\, upright\, and godly\, while we wait for the blessed hope and the manifestation of the glory of our great God and Savior\, Jesus Christ. He it is who gave himself for us that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds. \n\n\n\nLuke 2:1-14(15-20) (NRSV)\n\n\n\nIn those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea\, to the city of David called Bethlehem\, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary\, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. While they were there\, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth\, and laid him in a manger\, because there was no place for them in the inn. In that region there were shepherds living in the fields\, keeping watch over their flock by night. Then an angel of the Lord stood before them\, and the glory of the Lord shone around them\, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them\, “Do not be afraid; for see—I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior\, who is the Messiah\, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host\, praising God and saying\, “Glory to God in the highest heaven\, and on earth peace among those whom he favors!”[When the angels had left them and gone into heaven\, the shepherds said to one another\, “Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place\, which the Lord has made known to us.” So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph\, and the child lying in the manger. When they saw this\, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them. But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned\, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen\, as it had been told them.] \n\n\n\nChristmas II\n\n\n\nIsaiah 62:6-12 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nUpon your walls\, O Jerusalem\, I have posted sentinels; all day and all night they shall never be silent. You who remind the Lord\, take no rest\, and give him no rest until he establishes Jerusalem and makes it renowned throughout the earth. The Lord has sworn by his right hand and by his mighty arm: I will not again give your grain to be food for your enemies\, and foreigners shall not drink the wine for which you have labored; but those who garner it shall eat it and praise the Lord\, and those who gather it shall drink it in my holy courts. Go through\, go through the gates\, prepare the way for the people; build up\, build up the highway\, clear it of stones\, lift up an ensign over the peoples. The Lord has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to daughter Zion\, “See\, your salvation comes; his reward is with him\, and his recompense before him.” They shall be called\, “The Holy People\, The Redeemed of the Lord”; and you shall be called\, “Sought Out\, A City Not Forsaken.” \n\n\n\nPsalm 97 or 97:1-4\, 11-12 (BCP)\n\n\n\n1 The Lord is King; let the earth rejoice; *    let the multitude of the isles be glad. \n\n\n\n2 Clouds and darkness are round about him\, *    righteousness and justice are the foundations of his throne. \n\n\n\n3 A fire goes before him *    and burns up his enemies on every side. \n\n\n\n4 His lightnings light up the world; *    the earth sees it and is afraid. \n\n\n\n[5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the Lord\, *    at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. \n\n\n\n6 The heavens declare his righteousness\, *    and all the peoples see his glory. \n\n\n\n7 Confounded be all who worship carved images and delight in false gods! *    Bow down before him\, all you gods. \n\n\n\n8 Zion hears and is glad\, and the cities of Judah rejoice\, *    because of your judgments\, O Lord. \n\n\n\n9 For you are the Lord\, most high over all the earth; *    you are exalted far above all gods. \n\n\n\n10 The Lord loves those who hate evil; *    he preserves the lives of his saints and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.] \n\n\n\n11 Light has sprung up for the righteous\, *    and joyful gladness for those who are truehearted. \n\n\n\n12 Rejoice in the Lord\, you righteous\, *    and give thanks to his holy Name. \n\n\n\nTitus 3:4-7 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nWhen the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared\, he saved us\, not because of any works of righteousness that we had done\, but according to his mercy\, through the water of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit. This Spirit he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior\, so that\, having been justified by his grace\, we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. \n\n\n\nLuke 2:(1-7)8-20 (NRSV)\n\n\n\n[In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered.

Your sentinels lift up their voices\, together they sing for joy; for in plain sight they see the return of the Lord to Zion. Break forth together into singing\, you ruins of Jerusalem; for the Lord has comforted his people\, he has redeemed Jerusalem. The Lord has bared his holy arm before the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. \n\n\n\nPsalm 98 or 98:1-6 (BCP)\n\n\n\n1 Sing to the Lord a new song\, *    for he has done marvelous things. \n\n\n\n2 With his right hand and his holy arm *    has he won for himself the victory. \n\n\n\n3 The Lord has made known his victory; *    his righteousness has he openly shown in the sight of the nations. \n\n\n\n4 He remembers his mercy and faithfulness to the house of Israel\, *    and all the ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God. \n\n\n\n5 Shout with joy to the Lord\, all you lands; *    lift up your voice\, rejoice\, and sing. \n\n\n\n6 Sing to the Lord with the harp\, *    with the harp and the voice of song. \n\n\n\n[7 With trumpets and the sound of the horn *    shout with joy before the King\, the Lord. \n\n\n\n8 Let the sea make a noise and all that is in it\, *    the lands and those who dwell therein. \n\n\n\n9 Let the rivers clap their hands\, *    and let the hills ring out with joy before the Lord\, when he comes to judge the earth. \n\n\n\n10 In righteousness shall he judge the world *    and the peoples with equity.] \n\n\n\nHebrews 1:1-4(5-12) (NRSV)\n\n\n\nLong ago God spoke to our ancestors in many and various ways by the prophets\, but in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son\, whom he appointed heir of all things\, through whom he also created the worlds. He is the reflection of God’s glory and the exact imprint of God’s very being\, and he sustains all things by his powerful word. When he had made purification for sins\, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high\, having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.[For to which of the angels did God ever say\, “You are my Son; today I have begotten you”? Or again\, “I will be his Father\, and he will be my Son”? And again\, when he brings the firstborn into the world\, he says\, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” Of the angels he says\, “He makes his angels winds\, and his servants flames of fire.” But of the Son he says\, “Your throne\, O God\, is forever and ever\, and the righteous scepter is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God\, your God\, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.” And\, “In the beginning\, Lord\, you founded the earth\, and the heavens are the work of your hands; they will perish\, but you remain; they will all wear out like clothing; like a cloak you will roll them up\, and like clothing they will be changed. But you are the same\, and your years will never end.”] \n\n\n\nJohn 1:1-14 (NRSV)\n\n\n\nIn the beginning was the Word\, and the Word was with God\, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him\, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life\, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness\, and the darkness did not overcome it. There was a man sent from God\, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light\, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light\, but he came to testify to the light. The true light\, which enlightens everyone\, was coming into the world. He was in the world\, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. He came to what was his own\, and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received him\, who believed in his name\, he gave power to become children of God\, who were born\, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man\, but of God. And the Word became flesh and lived among us\, and we have seen his glory\, the glory as of a father’s only son\, full of grace and truth. \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.
