The Proclamation of the Word
A READING FROM THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH
Read by Winston Dottin
Now the word of the Lord came to me saying, “Before I formed
you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I
consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” Then
I said, “Ah, Lord God! Truly I do not know how to speak, for I am
only a boy.” But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am only a
boy’; for you shall go to all to whom I send you, and you shall speak
whatever I command you, Do not be afraid of them, for I am with
you to deliver you, says the Lord.” Then the Lord put out
his hand and touched my mouth; and the Lord said to me, “Now I
have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over
nations and over kingdoms, to pluck up and to pull down, to
destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.” JEREMIAH 1:4–10
The word of the Lord:
Thanks be to God.
PSALM 71: 1-6 (said responsively)
In you, O Lord, have I taken refuge;
let me never be ashamed.
In your righteousness, deliver me and set me free;
incline your ear to me and save me.
Be my strong rock, a castle to keep me safe;
you are my crag and my stronghold.
Deliver me, my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the clutches of the evildoer and the oppressor.
For you are my hope, O Lord God,
my confidence since I was young.
I have been sustained by you ever since I was born;
from my mother’s womb you have been my strength;
my praise shall be always of you.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son:
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be:
world without end Amen.
A READING FROM THE LETTER TO THE HEBREWS
Read by Sheila Cram
You have not come to something that can be touched, a blazing
fire, and darkness, and gloom, and a tempest, and the sound of a
trumpet, and a voice whose words made the hearers beg that not
another word be spoken to them. (For they could not endure the
order that was given, “If even an animal touches the mountain, it
shall be stoned to death.” Indeed, so terrifying was the sight that
Moses said, “I tremble with fear.”) But you have come to Mount
Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and
to innumerable angels in festal gathering, and to the assembly of the
firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the judge of all,

3. and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, and to Jesus, the
mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood
that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. See that you do
not refuse the one who is speaking; for if they did not escape when
they refused the one who warned them on earth, how much less will
we escape if we reject the one who warns from heaven! At that time
his voice shook the earth; but now he has promised, “Yet once
more I will shake not only the earth but also the heaven.” This
phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of what is shaken
—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may
remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be
shaken, let us give thanks, by which we offer to God an acceptable
worship with reverence and awe; for indeed our God is a consuming
fire. HEBREWS 12:18–29
The word of the Lord:
Thanks be to God.
Gradual Hymn 328 “Lo, God is here! Let us adore”
The Gospel
Gospeller: The Lord be with you.
All: And also with you.
Gospeller: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ
according to Luke.
All: Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
Now he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath. And
just then there appeared a woman with a spirit that had crippled her
for eighteen years. She was bent over and was quite
unable to stand up straight. When Jesus saw her, he called her over
and said, “Woman, you are set free from your ailment.” When he
laid his hands on her, immediately she stood up straight and began
praising God. But the leader of the synagogue, indignant because
Jesus had cured on the sabbath, kept saying to
the crowd, “There are six days on which work ought to be done;
come on those days and be cured, and not on the sabbath day.” But
the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites! Does not each of
you on the sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger, and
lead it away to give it water? And ought not this
woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan bound for eighteen
long years, be set free from this bondage on the sabbath day?”
When he said this, all his opponents were put to shame; and the
entire crowd was rejoicing at all the wonderful things that he was
doing. LUKE 13:10–17
Gospeller: The Gospel of Christ:
All: Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Prayer of Confession p. 239
Almighty God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Maker of all
things and judge of all people: We acknowledge and confess
our manifold sins and wickedness, Which from time to time
most grievously have committed, By thought, word and deed,
Against thy divine majesty. We do earnestly repent, and are
heartily sorry for these our misdoings. Have mercy upon us,
most merciful Father; For thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ’s
sake, Forgive us all that is past; And grant that we may ever
hereafter serve and please thee In newness of life, To the
honour and glory of thy name; Through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.

Eucharistic Prayer 1 p. 193
The Lord’s Prayer (sung) McNeil Robinson
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name,
your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial, and deliver us from evil,
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and
for ever. Amen.
The Breaking of the Bread
Celebrant: “I am the bread of life,” says the Lord.
“Whoever comes to me will never be hungry;
whoever believes in me will never thirst.”
All: Taste and see that the Lord is good;
happy are they who trust in him!
Prayer after Communion: Living God, increase in us the healing
power of your love. Guide and direct us that we may please
you in all things, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Doxology (All stand as able)
Presider: Glory to God,
All: whose power, working in us,
can do infinitely more
than we can ask or imagine.
Glory to God from generation to generation,
in the Church and in Christ Jesus,
for ever and ever. Amen.
