the mission of trinity cathedr al is To proclaim in word and action God’s justice, love and mercy for all creation. To d a y ’s Sc r i p t u r e Re a d i n g s Lamentations 5:1-21 emember, O Lord, what has befallen us; look, and see our disgrace! Our inheritance has been turned over to strang- ers, our homes to aliens. We have become orphans, fatherless; our mothers are like widows. We must pay for the Rwater we drink; the wood we get must be bought. With a yoke on our necks we are hard driven; we are weary, we are given no rest. We have made a pact with Egypt and Assyria, to get enough bread. Our ancestors sinned; they are no more, and we bear their iniquities. Slaves rule over us; there is no one to deliver us from their hand. We get our bread at the peril of our lives, because of the sword in the wilderness. Our skin is black as an oven from the scorching heat of famine. Women are raped in Zion, virgins in the towns of Judah. Princes are hung up by their hands; no respect is shown to the elders. Young men are compelled to grind, and boys stagger under loads of wood. The old men have left the city gate, the young men their music. The joy of our hearts has ceased; our dancing has been turned to mourning. The crown has fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned! Because of this our hearts are sick, because of these things our eyes have grown dim: because of Mount Zion, which lies desolate; jackals prowl over it.

But you, O Lord, reign for ever; your throne endures to all generations. Why have you forgotten us completely? Why have you forsaken us these many days? Restore us to yourself, O Lord, that we may be restored; renew our days as of old. Psalm 104:10-25 10 You send the springs into the valley; * they flow between the mountains. 11 All the beasts of the field drink their fill from them, * and the wild asses quench their thirst. 12 Beside them the birds of the air make their nests * and the wild asses quench their thirst. 13 You water the mountains from your dwelling on high; * the earth is fully satisfied by the fruit of your works. 14 You make the grass grow for flocks and herds * and plants to serve all people; 15 That they may bring forth food from the earth, ** and wine to gladden our hearts, 16 Oil to make a cheerful countenance, * and bread to strengthen the heart. 17 The trees of the Holy One are full of sap, * the cedars of Lebanon which God planted, 18 In which the birds build their nests, * and in whose tops the storks make their dwellings. 19. The high hills are a refuge for the mountain goats, * and the stony cliffs for the rock badgers. 20. You appointed the moon to mark the seasons, * and the sun knows the time of its setting. 21. You make darkness that it may be night, * in which all the beasts of the forests prowl. 22. The lions roar after their prey * and seek their food from God. 23. The sun rises, and they slip away * and lay themselves down in their dens. 24. We go forth to our work * and to our labor until the evening. 2 25. O Holy One, how maniford are your works; * in wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. Romans 8:18-25 consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory about to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the children of God; for the creation was subjected to futility, Inot of its own will but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and will obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning in labour pains until now; and not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly while we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. For in hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what is seen? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. Luke 12:22-34 esus said to his disciples, ‘Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear. For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they neither Jsow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds! And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life? If then you are not able to do so small a thing as that, why do you worry about the rest? Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will God clothe you—you of little faith! And do not keep striving for what you are to eat and what you are to drink, and do not keep worrying. For it is the nations of the world that strive after all these things, and your Creator knows that you need them. Instead, strive for the kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well. ‘Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is your Creator’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions, and give alms. Make purses for yourselves that do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Th e Pr a y e r s o f t h e Pe o p l e Gathered together as people of God’s Creation, let us pray for the church, the world, and all those in need. Creator God, help us to be wise caretakers of the gifts you have given us. Help us to use energy in a way that benefits all people and treads lightly on your creation. Creator, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Compassionate God, we pray for those in the world who are most vulnerable to the effects of our unwise use of energy, that they may have safe homes and daily bread, and that you would grace them with your presence in times of crisis, displacement, and famine. Creator, in your mercy, hear our prayer. God of peace, we pray that the nations will work peacefully to find solutions to our common energy needs, that we may avoid bitter conflict over limited energy sources. We pray that you would lift up leaders for peaceful cooperation and give strength and your blessing to the peacemakers. Creator, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Loving God, we pray for those who depend most on your gifts of energy for vital aspects of their daily lives, for the sick, the aging, the poor, and the children. Help us to achieve a sustainable and just energy future that will guarantee these vulnerable groups the services they need, especially as our changing climate makes our weather more erratic and more dangerous. Creator, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Holy God, we stand in awe of the wonders of your Creation. Help us to protect these wonders and find the energy we need from sources that do not tear down your mountains and poison your rivers. Creator, in your mercy, hear our prayer. We offer prayers especially for those commended to us... We pray for our companions in the Diocese of Belize and the Diocese of Tanga, Tanzania. In the Diocesan cycle of prayer, we pray for... In the Anglican cycle of prayer, we pray for... We pray for U. S. military personnel as requested by members of this congregation... We give thanks for the blessings of life, and we rejoice with those celebrating birthdays... We pray for all those we now name, silently or aloud [The congregation is invited to add their own petitions.]...We remember those who have died, especially....; and for those we now name [Members of the congregation are encouraged to pray the names of individuals they would like to remember]... For those who have died in military service this past week especially ... Finally, we offer petitions of intercession and thanksgiving silently or aloud for these other concerns on our hearts and minds [Time is allotted for all to offer prayers].

Th e Ni c e n e Cr e e d 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, was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and was made human. 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 and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, who 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.

Worse yet were the environmental infractions, which the lead Pretender colorfully describes as, “my pretty countryside / Had been paved down the middle / By a government that had no pride.” At the time of penning this song in 1982, Hynde was becoming increasingly involved in environmental causes and she remains one of the best-known People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals(PETA) supporters in the world. ultimateclassicrock.com

But this one, which Peter Gabriel co-wrote with Thomas Newman for the Disney-Pixar film ‘WALL-E,’ takes a hopeful view of the future in which people recognize the ramifications of their actions and the beauty that’s worth preserving. Featuring backing vocals from the Soweto Gospel choir, ‘Down to Earth’ is an inspired contribution to the Top 20 Earth Day Songs, whether or not you hear it over the closing credits of an animated movie. ultimateclassicrock.com

With “roads over fresh green grass” and “scrapers fill[ing] the air,” the folk singer wonders if there will be any open spaces left for children to enjoy. In the chorus, Stevens asks if society is losing more than its gaining in the name of progress. He leaves the listener the opportunity to decide the answer. ultinmateclassicrock.com

Presider Lift up your hearts. People We lift them to the Lord.

Presider Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. People It is right to give God thanks and praise.

Presider It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, God Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. But chiefly are we bound to praise you for the glorious resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. By his death he has destroyed death, and by his rising to life again he has won for us everlasting life.

Therefore, we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name:

Presider We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life. On the night before he died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.”

After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, “Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for all for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.” Therefore we proclaim the mystery of our faith: b & b œ œ ˙ œ œ œ œ. œ œ œ œ w . Christ has died, Christ is risJ -en, Christ will come a-gain. 15 And we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, Creator of all; presenting to you, from your creation, this bread and this wine. We pray you, gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be the Sacrament of the Body of Christ and his Blood of the new Covenant. Unite us to your Son in his sacrifice, that we may be acceptable through him, by the Holy Spirit.

In the fullness of time, bring us to that heavenly country where, with all your saints, we may enter the everlasting heritage of your sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord, the firstborn of all creation, the head of the Church, and the author of our salvation.

By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty God, now and for ever. b & b œ œ ˙ œ œ ˙ œ œ œ œ w . A-men, a-men, a- - men! Presider And now as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say, Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. 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, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

God, remind us you still trust us to restore our blighted earth. Help us heal its suff’ring places, plead for saving nature’s worth. Prod us to accept our calling: answer now the silent cry of the forest and the rivers waiting for us to reply.

You are present in all nature. Your own self is there expressed. Help us cease from our exploiting earth we’re called upon to bless; ponder what we would be losing-- wild woods and fresh flowing streams. Spring would come without new flowering, laying waste our hopes and dreams.

Thank you for the gift of nature holding life in its embrace. Strengthen us to work as partners with you in our time and place.
