The Easter Greeting Priest: Alleluia! Christ is risen. People: The Lord is risen indeed! Alleluia!

Priest: May his grace and peace be with you. People: May he fill our hearts with joy.

Priest: Almighty God, All: to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are

hidden. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy name; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Gloria - Communion Service in D major – Heathcote Statham (1889-1973) Sung by the Choir

Glory be to God on high, and in earth peace, good will towards men. We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee, we glorify thee, we give thanks to thee for thy great glory: O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty. O Lord, the only begotten Son, Jesus Christ; O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, that takest away the sin of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou that takest away the sin of the world, receive our prayer. Thou that sittest at the right hand of God the Father, have mercy upon us. For thou only art holy; thou only art the Lord; thou only, O Christ, with the Holy Ghost, art most high in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

The Collect of the Day

Priest: Merciful God, you have prepared for those who love you riches beyond imagination. Pour into our hearts such love toward you, that we, loving you above all things, may obtain your promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

First Reading Please be seated Reader: A Reading from the Acts of the Apostles.

Il y avait aussi à Jaffa une femme disciple du Seigneur, nommée Tabitha, ce qui se traduit : Dorcas (c’est-à-dire : Gazelle). Elle était riche des bonnes œuvres et des aumônes qu’elle faisait. Or, il arriva en ces jours-là qu’elle tomba malade et qu’elle mourut. Après la toilette funèbre, on la déposa dans la chambre haute. Comme Lod est près de Jaffa, les disciples, apprenant que Pierre s’y trouvait, lui envoyèrent deux hommes avec cet appel : « Viens chez nous sans tarder. » Pierre se mit en route avec eux. À son arrivée on le fit monter à la chambre haute. Toutes

During the night Paul had a vision: there stood a man of Macedonia pleading with him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” When he had seen the vision, we immediately tried to cross over to Macedonia, being convinced that God had called us to proclaim the good news to them. We set sail from Troas and took a straight course to Samothrace, the following day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, which is a leading city of the district of Macedonia and a Roman colony. We remained in this city for some

Tone VIII. 1

les veuves en larmes s’approchèrent de lui ; elles lui montraient les tuniques et les manteaux confectionnés par Dorcas quand celle-ci était avec elles. Pierre mit tout le monde dehors ; il se mit à genoux et pria ; puis il se tourna vers le corps, et il dit : « Tabitha, lève-toi ! » Elle ouvrit les yeux et, voyant Pierre, elle se redressa et s’assit. Pierre, lui donnant la main, la fit lever. Puis il appela les fidèles et les veuves et la leur présenta vivante. La chose fut connue dans toute la ville de Jaffa, et beaucoup crurent au Seigneur. Pierre resta assez longtemps à Jaffa, chez un certain Simon, qui travaillait le cuir.

days. On the sabbath day we went outside the gate by the river, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down and spoke to the women who had gathered there. A certain woman named Lydia, a worshipper of God, was listening to us; she was from the city of Thyatira and a dealer in purple cloth. The Lord opened her heart to listen eagerly to what was said by Paul. When she and her household were baptized, she urged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come and stay at my home.” And she prevailed upon us.

Second Reading Please be seated Reader: A Reading from the Revelation to John the Divine. And in the spirit, an angel carried me away to a great, high mountain and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God. I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb through the middle of the street of the city. On either side of the river is the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, producing its fruit each month; and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. Nothing accursed will be found there any more. But the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him; they will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. And there will be no more night; they need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever.

Reader: The word of the Lord. Revelation 21.10, 22-22.5 People: Thanks be to God. A moment of silence is observed Gospel Acclamation: #405 – “ALLELUIA!” Please stand & sing

The Gospel Priest: The Lord be with you. People: And also with you.

Priest: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John. All: After this there was a festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate there is a pool, called in Hebrew Beth-zatha, which has five porticoes. In these lay many invalids - blind, lame, and paralyzed. One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been there a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be made well?” The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; and while I am making my way, someone else steps down ahead of me.” Jesus said to him, “Stand up, take your mat and walk. “At once the man was made well, and he took up his mat and began to walk. Now that day was a sabbath.

Priest: The Gospel of Christ. John 5.1-9

Sermon: The Rev. Dr. Holly Ratcliffe Please be seated

A moment of silence is observed. The Nicene Creed Please stand

Priest: Let us confess our faith as we say, All: We believe in one God, the Father, the almighty, maker of heaven and earth,

of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the scriptures; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father.

All: With the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified. He has spoken through the prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The Prayers of the People Please kneel or be seated

Please offer your prayers, as the Spirit moves you We ask for them an awareness of your constant presence and for courage to place

that all may recognise you in heaven and live in your light for ever. The names of those who have died are offered

Rest eternal grant unto them, O Lord. All: And let light perpetual shine upon them.

way of life, and for the painstaking guidance you provide. Merciful Father, accept these prayers for the sake of your Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ.

All: Amen. Confession and Absolution

Ministrant: Dear friends in Christ, God is steadfast in love and infinite in mercy; he welcomes sinners and invites them to his table. Let us confess our sins, confident in God’s forgiveness.

Priest: Most merciful God, All: we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by

what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us, that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your name. Amen.

Priest: Almighty God have mercy upon you, pardon and deliver you from all your sins, confirm and strengthen you in all goodness, and keep you in eternal life; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

All: Amen. The Peace Please stand

Priest: The peace of the Lord be always with you. People: And also with you. Ministrant: If you love me, you will keep my word, and my Father will love you, and we will come to you. (John 14.23)

Sanctus - Communion Service in D major – Heathcote Statham (1889-1973) Sung by the Choir

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts. Heav'n and earth are full of thy glory: Glory be to thee, O Lord most High. Amen Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. Please kneel or be seated Priest: Gracious God, in the fullness of time you sent Jesus the Christ to share our fragile

humanity. Through Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection you open the path from brokenness to health, from fear to trust, from pride and conceit to reverence for you. Rejected by a world that could not bear the Gospel of life, Jesus knew death was near. His head anointed for burial by an unknown woman, Jesus gathered together those who loved him. He took bread, gave thanks to you, broke it and gave it to his friends, saying, “Take and eat: this is my body which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.” After supper, Jesus took the cup of wine,

Notre Père, qui es aux cieux, que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne. Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel. Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour. Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés. Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal. Car c'est à toi qu'appartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire, dans les siècles des siècles. Amen.

Christ has died, Christ is ris en,- Christ will come a gain.-

gave you thanks, and said “Drink this all of you, this is my blood of the new covenant which is shed for you and for many. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.” And now we gather at this table in response to his commandment, to share the bread and cup of Christ’s undying love, and to proclaim our faith.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
