M: Almighty God, before whom angels veil their faces, and in whose presence they delight, with reverence and joy we acknowledge your glory and worship you: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.

M: Confessing our sins and unworthiness, we beg for your mercy and forgiveness, for the sake of Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh to dwell among us, full of grace and truth. Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong? What the gladsome tidings be Which inspire you heav’nly song? Gloria in excelsis Deo, Gloria in excelsis Deo. M: When the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we receive the full rights of sons. Shepherds in the fields abiding, Watching o’er your flocks by night, God with us is now residing—Yonder shines the infant light Come and worship, come and worship, Worship Christ, the newborn King.

  • Gloria in Excelsis Deo
    Gloria in excelsis Deo For the Bach cantata of that title, see Gloria in excelsis 1 History Deo, BWV 191. "Gloria in excelsis Deo"(Latin for “Glory to God in the It is an example of the psalmi idiotici (“private psalms”, i.e. compositions by individuals in imitation of the bib- lical Psalter) that were popular in the 2nd and 3rd cen- turies. Other surviving examples of this lyric poetry are the Te Deum and the Phos Hilaron.[3] In the 4th century it became part of morning prayers, and is still recited in the Byzantine Rite Orthros service.[1] The Latin translation is traditionally attributed to Saint Hilary of Poitiers (c. 300–368), who may have learned it while in the East (359–360); as such, it is part of a loose tradition of early Latin translations of the scripture known as the Vetus Latina.[3] The Vulgate Latin transla- tion of the Bible was commissioned only in 382.[4] The Latin hymn thus uses the word excelsis to translate the Greek word ὑψίστοις (the highest) in Luke 2:14, not the word altissimis, which Saint Jerome preferred for his translation. However, this word is used near the end: tu solus Altissimus, Jesu Christe (you alone the Most High, Jesus Christ). 2 Present-day Greek text 3 Present-day Latin text Glória in excélsis Deo et in terra pax homínibus bonæ voluntátis.

We are so glad you are here from so many places, whether as long-time congregants, newer arrivals, or our very special guests.

  • The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ
    The Diocese of Los Angeles The Parish of Saint Patrick The Episcopal Church in Thousand Oaks Nativity, Shane Guinn THE NATIVITY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST The Holy Eucharist + December 24, 2020 + 7:00 pm WELCOME TO ST. PATRICK’S AS WE CELEBRATE THE BIRTH OF JESUS The days are short at this time of year. The nights are long. Many of us come from houses and yards draped in lights. Inside there may be a Christmas tree bringing a light of promise to our homes. Those same Christmas lights have led us out of the shadow of darkness to worship together this Christmas. Here we shall hear of angels, of shepherds, and of Mary and Joseph wondering about the future of the baby Jesus. They may have seen the star overhead in the night sky. Others, wise men from the East, were on a journey following that light, probably not knowing what it meant. Many of us bring questions about God, about the meaning of life, along with our own empty places or struggles. No one comes with all the answers. It’s just so much better that we come with a sense of wonder and expectation and hope as we sing Silent Night, Holy Night. May the gift of this Christmas Eve find you hearing God’s call to follow Jesus in the new year that will give us the rest of the story. Many of us know that as we tell his story, we are finding the Christ in the story of our own lives. Please come back.

Make me ready to receive the Bread of angels with such reverence and humility, such sorrow and devotion, such purity and faith, such purpose and intention as shall best lead to my salvation. Dear God, grant that I may so receive the Body of your only-begotten Son, that I may be worthy to be incorporated into his Mystical Body and counted among his members.
