PROKEIMENON

Daniel 32627

Blessed are you O Lord the God of our fathers

Verse For you are just in all you have done

Acts of the Apostles 2016-18 28-36

IN THOSE DAYS Paul had decided to sail past Ephesos

so that he might not have to spend time in Asia for he was

hastening to be at Jerusalem if possible on the day of

Pentecost And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos and called

to him the elders of the church And when they came to

him he said to them Take heed to yourselves and to all

the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you

overseers to care for the church of God which he obtained

with the blood of his own Son I know that after my

departure fierce wolves will come in among you not

sparing the flock and from among your own selves will

arise men speaking perverse things to draw away the

disciples after them Therefore be alert remembering that

for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish

every one with tears And now I commend you to God and

to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and

to give you the inheritance among all those who are

sanctified I coveted no ones silver or gold or apparel

You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my

necessities and to those who were with me In all things I

have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak

remembering the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it

is more blessed to give than to receive And when he

had spoken thus he knelt down and prayed with them all

THE EPISTLE READING

The Gospel According to John 171-13

At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the

Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have

given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent

I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify

me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made

I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave

them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you

for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came

from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world

but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am

glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy

Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I

was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is

lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things

I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves

Κατὰ Ἰωάννην 171-13

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς καὶ ἐπῆρε τοὺς ὀφθαλmicroοὺς αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ εἶπε πάτερ

σοῦ ἐστιν ὅτι τὰ ῥήmicroατα ἃ δέδωκάς microοι δέδωκα αὐτοῖς καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔλαβον καὶ ἔγνωσαν ἀληθῶς

ὅτι παρὰ σοῦ ἐξῆλθον καὶ ἐπίστευσαν ὅτι σύ microε ἀπέστειλας ᾿Εγὼ περὶ αὐτῶν ἐρωτῶ οὐ περὶ

PROKEIMENON

Daniel 32627

Blessed are you O Lord the God of our fathers

Verse For you are just in all you have done

Acts of the Apostles 2016-18 28-36

IN THOSE DAYS Paul had decided to sail past Ephesos

so that he might not have to spend time in Asia for he was

hastening to be at Jerusalem if possible on the day of

Pentecost And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos and called

to him the elders of the church And when they came to

him he said to them Take heed to yourselves and to all

the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you

overseers to care for the church of God which he obtained

with the blood of his own Son I know that after my

departure fierce wolves will come in among you not

sparing the flock and from among your own selves will

arise men speaking perverse things to draw away the

disciples after them Therefore be alert remembering that

for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish

every one with tears And now I commend you to God and

to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and

to give you the inheritance among all those who are

sanctified I coveted no ones silver or gold or apparel

You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my

necessities and to those who were with me In all things I

have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak

remembering the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it

is more blessed to give than to receive And when he

had spoken thus he knelt down and prayed with them all

THE EPISTLE READING

The Gospel According to John 171-13

At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the

Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have

given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent

I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify

me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made

I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave

them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you

for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came

from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world

but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am

glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy

Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I

was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is

lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things

I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves

Blessed are you O Lord the God of our fathers

Verse For you are just in all you have done

Acts of the Apostles 2016-18 28-36

IN THOSE DAYS Paul had decided to sail past Ephesos

so that he might not have to spend time in Asia for he was

hastening to be at Jerusalem if possible on the day of

Pentecost And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos and called

to him the elders of the church And when they came to

him he said to them Take heed to yourselves and to all

the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you

overseers to care for the church of God which he obtained

with the blood of his own Son I know that after my

departure fierce wolves will come in among you not

sparing the flock and from among your own selves will

arise men speaking perverse things to draw away the

disciples after them Therefore be alert remembering that

for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish

every one with tears And now I commend you to God and

to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and

to give you the inheritance among all those who are

sanctified I coveted no ones silver or gold or apparel

You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my

necessities and to those who were with me In all things I

have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak

remembering the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it

is more blessed to give than to receive And when he

had spoken thus he knelt down and prayed with them all

THE EPISTLE READING

The Gospel According to John 171-13

At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the

Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have

given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent

I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify

me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made

I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave

them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you

for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came

from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world

but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am

glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy

Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I

was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is

lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things

I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves

CELEBRATING GODrsquoS CREATION

The Gospel According to John 171-13

At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the

Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have

given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent

I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify

me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made

I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave

them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you

for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came

from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world

but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am

glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy

Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I

was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is

lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things

I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves
