  • St Stephen's BELVEDERE
    Welcome to St Stephen’s BELVEDERE ost often, bread is shared food. In the ancient world, a large loaf usually sat at the center of the table, from which guests would tear off portions with their hands — an earthy, tactile breaking of bread Mtogether. The food of both kings and paupers, men and women, rich and poor, slave and free, through the ages bread has remained a staple of sustenance as everyone’s food, symbolizing unity and hospitality. As a final act of love before his crucifixion, Jesus breaks bread with his followers. And right after his resurrection he meets the disciples on the shore with baked bread — an act of peace and reconciliation. Welcome to St Stephen’s, a community grounded in sharing the bread of life. To our visitors, newcomers, and seekers: n The Bishop’s Office requests that, indoors, the congregation wear masks. They may be removed to receive the Sacrament of Communion. n If you’re new, please email [email protected] to let us know who you are, to ask questions, or to make comments. n Donations and Contributions can be made online at https://www.ststephenschurch.org/give/ n If you are ready to inquire about membership, want us to pray for you or someone you name, or you’d like a call from one of our priests, please email [email protected]. n For all current information and schedules, please check the church website St Stephen’s Calendar page. 8th August 2021 | The Tenth Sunday after Trinity — Altar Flowers — The flowers at the altar today are given by Bonnie & Steve Echerd to the glory of God, with love and in honor Barbara Berling’s birthday.

  • 3-Step Plan Article #9 Conduct of the Service by ACP" (45 Pages)
    File Name: "3-Step Plan Article #9 Conduct of the Service by ACP" (45 pages) THE CONDUCT OF THE SERVICE According to the Rubrics of The Lutheran Hymnal, The Lutheran Liturgy, The Lutheran Lectionary, and The Music for the Liturgy1 By Arthur Carl Piepkorn (1907-1973☩) Concordia Seminary Print Shop, 1965. 44 pages. Edited by Philip James Secker. Revised 3/17/19. 40 pages. Editor's Note: Arthur Carl Piepkorn's classic monograph The Conduct of the Service is primarily about the rubrics of the Service, but contains a great deal of information about what is in Piepkorn's 1962 classic monograph The Architectural Requirements of the Lutheran Cultus (which is in 3-Step Plan Article #7 The Full 3-step Plan). "Cultus" is a Latin loan word that refers to adiaphora, that is, things that are neither commanded nor forbidden by God such as architecture, altars, banners, baptismal fonts, candles, holy communion vessels and rails, hymnals, musical instruments, offering plates, pews, unleavened holy communion wafers, vestments, etc. So both monographs should be used together. The following book is now available as a computer searchable CD that can be searched for additional information on what is in those two monographs: The Sacred Scriptures and the Lutheran Confessions, edited and introduced by Philip J. Secker, Foreword by Robert Kolb, Volume 2 in The Selected Writings of Arthur Carl Piepkorn, CEC Press, 2007, 313 pages. This edition of The Conduct of the Service is Copyright©2018 Philip James Secker but may be reproduced as long as it is reproduced in its entirety.

  • Liturgical Ministry of Sacristan
    Liturgical Ministry of Sacristan “The sacristan diligently arranges the liturgical books, the vestments, and other things that are necessary for the celebration of Mass.” General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM), #105(a) GUIDELINES Welcome to the Liturgical Ministry of Sacristan! The Eucharist celebration constitutes the very life of the Church, for the Lord said; “I am the bread of life. No one who comes to me shall ever be hungry; no one who believes in me shall ever thirst." (John 6:35) “The LITURGY is the SUMMIT towards which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time, it is the FONT from which all power flows.” (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy - Documents of Vatican II) Your role as the person who prepares the sacred space to welcome the faithful, as well as the table to welcome Jesus in the Word proclaimed and the sacrament of the most holy Eucharist, is an integral part of the liturgy. We are called to serve one another as members of the parish community. We are challenged by the example of Jesus to reach out in loving service to others, offering hospitality and welcome to the community at large. Strengthened by our prayer together, we are empowered to make our faith present in our daily lives. This handout is designed to assist you in your participation in the Liturgical Ministry of Sacristan at St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Student Center. Your willingness to serve as Sacristan reflects not only your response to your Baptismal call to serve the people of God, but also your commitment to Christ.

  • Should Lutherans Reserve the Consecrated Elements for the Communion of the Sick? Roland Ziegler
    Volume 622 April 2003 Table of Contents The Response of the Faculty of Concordia Theological Seminary to Questions Concerning Lay Teachers of Theology ..............................................99 Baptism as Church Foundation David P. Scaer ................................109 Should Lutherans Reserve the Consecrated Elements for the Communion of the Sick? Roland Ziegler ................................131 Sacramental Theology in the Book of Revelation Charles A. Gieschen ...........................149 Liturgy and Dogmatics Kurt E. Marquart ..............................175 Should Lutherans Reserve the Consecrated Elements for the Communion of the Sick? Roland F. Ziegler The universal custom in Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy is for the priest to commune the sick and shut-ins with previously consecrated elements.' These churches do not know of a consecration of the elements outside the liturgical order of the eucharistic celebration. In Lutheranism the traditional practice is to consecrate the elements in the presence of the communing person@),be it home, hospital, or nursing home. Lately, however, this practice seems to be changing. Students at the seminary find themselves in situations where they are required, on vicarages or even before as field workers, to bring elements that had been previously consecrated by the pastor to those who can no longer attend the communal worship at church. Practical reasons seem to be at the root of this practice: a large number of shut-ins plus numerous other pastoral duties are the apparent compelling justification for using a vicar or field worker as a relief for an all too pressing schedule. There are also other occasions where such a change in practice (the reservation of the consecrated elements for later communion) is observed because of its practicality.
