Please be seated for the readings. The First Lesson Exodus 12:1‐4, 11‐14 Lector A reading from the Book of Exodus. The 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. 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. Lector The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God. The Gradual Psalm 116: 1, 10‐17 Robert Knox Kennedy Anglican chant is a treasured tradition in the Episcopal Church. We sing the words of the Psalm on one note until the accent (á), which indicates to move to the next note. Please sing (or read silently) along with us! How shall I now repay the Lórd for all his gifts to mé? I will lift up salvation’s cúp and call on him in néed. I love the Lord because he héard, because he listened to my pléa; Because when I have called on hím he has inclined his ear to mé. The grave held me within its gríp, the cords of death entangled mé; Then sorrow overwhelmed my lífe and grief was my lot constantlý. I called upon his name and sáid, “Save me, O Lord, I pray to yóu;” Full of compassion is our Gód; the Lord is gracious, righteous, tóo. The innocent are kept from hárm; he helped me when I was brought lów; Turn, then, my soul, and take your rést; he treats you fairly, as you knów. He keeps my feet from any fáll, my eyes from tears, my life from déath, Page 2 And in the presence of the Lórd I will walk while I draw my bréath. The Second Lesson 1 Corinthians 11: 23‐26 Reader A reading from the First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians. For I 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. Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God. Please stand as able for The Holy Gospel John 13: 1‐17, 31b‐35 Deacon The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John. People Glory to you, Lord Christ. Now 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 out‐ er robe, and tied a towel around himself. Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciplesʹ feet and to wipe them with the towel that was tied around him. He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, ʺLord, are you going to wash my feet?ʺ Jesus answered, ʺYou do not know now what I am doing, but later you will understand.ʺ Peter said to him, ʺYou will never wash my feet.ʺ Jesus answered, ʺUnless I wash you, you have no share with me.ʺ Simon Peter said to him, ʺLord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!ʺ Jesus said to him, ʺOne 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.ʺ For he knew who was to betray him; for this reason he said, ʺNot all of you are clean.ʺ After he had washed their feet, had put on his robe, and had returned to the table, he said to them, ʺDo 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 anotherʹs 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.

  • Epiphany 3 Instructed 10Am Font Change
    Third Sunday After Epiphany January 22, 2017 10:00 am Welcome We are delighted that you are here for worship. This bulletin should provide the information you need to participate fully in the service today. The hymn numbers refer to the blue Hym- nal 1982 in the pew rack. If you need additional guidance, just ask someone near you. Please consider coming to coffee hour in the parish hall after the conclusion of worship. At coffee hour we continue our Sunday celebration and get a chance to meet and socialize with each other and with our guests. The parish hall is to the left after you go out the doors at the back of the church, or through one of the doors on the right-hand side of the church as you face the altar. We are a community centered around the Eucharist, the consecrated bread and wine. We believe in the real presence of Christ's body and blood in the bread and wine that we receive at communion. We also believe that Christ is the host at the altar, and we are all his guests. All who seek God and are drawn to Christ are warmly invited to share in this meal, to partake of Christ's body and blood in the bread and wine. An usher will indicate to you when it is time to go forward. Please kneel or stand at the altar rail, and hold out your hands to receive the bread. You may either eat the bread and then drink from the cup, or hold the bread in your hand to dip into the wine.

  • Altar Server Words and Objects to Know
    Altar Server Words and Objects To Know Acclamation: literally "a holy shout!" We sing the Gospel Acclamation as a way of praising God who is present in the Word. We join more fully during the Church's solemn Eucharistic Prayer when we respond with the eucharistic acclamations it contains. Acolyte: someone who helps prepare for the liturgical ceremony, leads the congregation, and assists the priest as a minister of Communion. The acolyte, one of the Church's ministers, is instituted by the Bishop or his delegate in a special ceremony. Advent: the four weeks before Christmas, during which we prepare for Christ's final coming as well as for the upcoming Christmas feast. The priest wears violet, which is a traditional color of waiting, preparation, anticipation and expectation. Advent Wreath: a festive circular wreath, often made of greens, arranged to hold three violet candles and one pink (or rose) candle. The candles are lighted for the Saturday evening and Sunday Masses of Advent, with one additional candle lighted each week so that the Light of Christ becomes brighter as we approach Christmas. The candles may be changed for white ones, which would burn during the Christmas season until the Baptism of the Lord. Alb: a long, white garment which covers the entire body. This was the clothing that the citizens of ancient Rome wore. The alb is always worn by the priest and deacon. In some parishes, servers and other liturgical ministers also wear albs. Altar: the place where the sacrifice of Jesus is offered to the Father and made present to us.

  • Worship and Visitor Guide
    Welcome to St. John’s Church ST JOHN’S ANGLICAN CHURCH A traditional Anglican parish in the Diocese of Fort Worth Welcome to St. John’s Anglican Church Thank you for your attendance and interest in St John’s Church. Please fill out a Visitors Card. They are found in the pew rack and also on the table in the Narthex where you entered the church. Be sure to join us in the Parish Hall for refreshments. We look forward to meeting you there. Anglican Worship of Almighty God Worship of the Triune God: The Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit is our way at St John’s to love God and listen to Him and be fed by Him. Historic worship, such as St John’s is called “liturgy.” This word comes from two Greek words, laos (people) and ergon (work). It was a secular word at the time of the Apostles that the primitive Church incorporated into their language to indicate that Christian worship of God is the primary duty and activity of the people of God. Over the centuries various liturgies that guide and instruct the worship of God in various settings have grown up. The Book of Common Prayer brought many practices and liturgies together into a common book of worship beginning in 1549. The 2019 Book of Common Prayer of the ACNA is the 10th book. Anglicans exercise a variety of protocols and postures during worship. For example, We sit so to be instructed by the Word of God declared in the sacred Scripture and in the Sermon.

    DIOCESE OF HARRISBURG THE CELEBRATION OF THE SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION WITHIN MASS NOTES FOR ALTAR SERVERS 2016-2017 INTRODUCTION These notes are supplied with the purpose of aiding the individual responsible for preparing the altar servers for the administration of the Sacrament of Confirmation. It is important that the servers understand the significance of their role in the liturgy and be prepared to carry it out in a reverent and respectful manner. During the actual ceremony, the servers will be supervised by a Master of Ceremonies assigned by the Bishop’s Office. The servers should be informed that they are to follow the directives of the Master of Ceremonies. Servers should be reminded that they are to dress appropriately for the Confirmation ceremony. “Jeans and sneakers” are not acceptable. THURIFER The Thurifer will come to Bishop prior to start of procession and the Bishop will impose incense. After imposing, the Bishop will then bless the incense burning on the charcoal. Then the Thurifer closes the lid of the thurible. The Thurifer will lead the procession into the church. The Thurifer will carry the thurible and boat with incense. Upon arriving at the altar, the Thurifer will make a reverence to the altar and then move to the left side of the sanctuary to the left of the altar. The Thurifer will be prepared to approach the Bishop after the Bishop reverences the altar. The Bishop will impose incense. The Thurifer should give thurible to the Deacon, who in turn will hand the thurible to the Bishop. If no Deacon is present, then the Thurifer will hand the thurible directly to the Bishop.
