    A note for visitors: Were thankful that you could join us for worship today, andwe pray God blesses you in your time here. The service is printed in your bulletin andinsert. If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask someone around you!

    St. Francis Church wants to encourage families to worship together. The practice ofdividing families for worship is a modern invention and is often detrimental to the goalof worshipping as a body. In order to be a community where all ages feel welcome,

    we provide coloring materials for children to use during worship and seek to be acommunity that understands the specic gifts and challenges that children bring. Weencourage you, should you feel comfortable doing so, to sit toward the front with yourchildren, as little-ones are often more attentive if they can see what is happening.

    That being said, we understand that there may be times when it is best to takeadvantage of child care, which we have available in the room immediately through the

    Kitchen off of the entryway. All parents are provided with vibrating beepers to informthem should anything come up requiring their attention.

    In Preparation for worship: We invite you to take a few moments before the servicebegins to be still, and rest from the business of your lives. Take time to breathe deeply,and reect upon the past week. When youre ready, you might say the following prayeror one like it in preparation for worship.

    O Almighty God, who pours out on all who desire it the spirit of grace andof supplication: Deliver us, when we draw near to you, from coldness ofheart and wanderings of mind, that with steadfast thoughts and kindled

    affections we may worship you in spirit and in truth; though Jesus Christour Lord. Amen.

    Collect of the Day:

    O God, who made this most holy night to shine with the glory of the Lords resurrection:Stir up in your Church that Spirit of adoption which is given to us in Baptism, that we,being renewed both in body and mind, may worship you in sincerity and truth; through

    Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, oneGod, now and for ever. Amen.

    First Reading: Acts 10:34-43

    All sit.

    A Reading from the Acts of the Apostles.

    And Peter opened his mouth and said: Truly I perceive that God shows no partiality, butin every nation any one who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. Youknow the word which he sent to Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ(he is Lord of all), the word which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning fromGalilee after the baptism which John preached: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth withthe Holy Spirit and with power; how he went about doing good and healing all that wereoppressed by the devil, for God was with him. And we are witnesses to all that he did bothin the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on atree; but God raised him on the third day and made him manifest; not to all the people

    but to us who were chosen by God as witnesses, who ate and drank with him after he rosefrom the dead. And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he is theone ordained by God to be judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear

    witness that every one who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.

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

    The Psalm of the day:

    Remain seated

    Psalm 118:1-2,14-24Contemini Domino

    1 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; *

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

    The Sanctus: S-130

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

    Heaven and earth are full of your glory.Hosanna in the highest.

    Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.Hosanna in the highest.

    Please stand or kneel at this time, as best helps you to pray.

    Holy and gracious Father: In your innite love you made us for yourself; and, when wehad fallen into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent JesusChrist, your only and eternal Son, to share our human nature, to live and die as one ofus, to reconcile us to you, the God and Father of all.

    He stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself, in obedience to your will,a perfect sacrice for the whole world.On the night he was handed over to suffering and death, our Lord Jesus Christ tookbread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, andsaid, Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance ofme.

    After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them,and said, Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed

    for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for theremembrance of me.

    Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith:

    Christ has died.Christ is risen.

    Christ will come again.

    We celebrate the memorial of our redemption, O Father, in this sacrice of praise andthanksgiving. Recalling his death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these gifts.

    Sanctify them by your Holy Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son,the holy food and drink of new and unending life in him. Sanctify us also that we may

    faithfully receive this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity, constancy, and peace; andat the last day bring us with all your saints into the joy of your eternal kingdom.

    All this we ask through your Son Jesus Christ. By him, and with him, and in him, in theunity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever.AMEN.

    And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say,

    Our Father, who art in heaven,hallowed by thy Name,
