Collect of the Day

First Reading Romans 8:18-27
All sit
Reader: A reading from Paul’s letter to the Romans
I 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, not 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 labor 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.
Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words. And God, who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.

Lectura de la Carta de San Pablo a los Romanos.
Considero que los sufrimientos del tiempo presente no son nada si los comparamos con la gloria que habremos de ver después. La creación espera con gran impaciencia el momento en que se manifieste claramente que somos hijos de Dios. Porque la creación perdió su verdadera finalidad, no por su propia voluntad, sino porque Dios así lo había dispuesto; pero le quedaba siempre la esperanza de ser liberada de la esclavitud y la destrucción, para alcanzar la gloriosa libertad de los hijos de Dios. Sabemos que hasta ahora la creación entera se queja y sufre como una mujer con dolores de parto. Y no sólo ella sufre, sino también nosotros, que ya tenemos el Espíritu como anticipo de lo que vamos a recibir. Sufrimos profundamente, esperando el momento de ser adoptados como hijos de Dios, con lo cual serán liberados nuestros cuerpos. Con esa esperanza hemos sido salvados. Sólo que esperar lo que ya se está viendo no es esperanza, pues, ¿quién espera lo que ya está viendo? Pero si lo que esperamos es algo que todavía no vemos, tenemos que esperarlo sufriendo con firmeza.
De igual manera, el Espíritu nos ayuda en nuestra debilidad. Porque no sabemos orar como es debido, pero el Espíritu mismo ruega a Dios por nosotros, con gemidos que no pueden expresarse con palabras. Y Dios, que examina los corazones, sabe qué es lo que el Espíritu quiere decir, porque el Espíritu ruega, conforme a la voluntad de Dios, por los del pueblo santo.
Palabra del Señor. Demos gracias a Dios.

Psalm 139:1-11 (sung to the tune St. Anne)
1 Lord, you have searched me out and known All that your hands have wrought; My rising up and sitting down, You know my every thought.
2 You trace my journeys and my rests, And everything I do; There is no word upon my lips Which is not known to you.
3 Behind, before, you press on me And on me lay your hand; Such knowledge is too wonderful For me to understand.
4 Then from your Spirit or your face, Where can I flee or go? In heaven above I find you there, And in the grave also.
5 If I should take the wings of dawn And reach the farthest sea, Yet even there your hand holds fast, Your right hand still leads me.
6 If I say, “Surely darkness hides, And light will turn to night,” The darkness is not dark, to you Both day and night are bright.
from A New Metrical Psalter Christopher Webber Church Publishing, NY

Sequence Hymn Seek ye first/Buscad primero Seek Ye First
Buscad primero el reino de Dios y su perfecta justicia, y lo demás añadido será. Alelu, aleluya. Pedid, pedid y se os dará; buscad y hallaréis; llamad, llamad y la puerta se abrirá. Alelu, aleluya. Estribillo Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya! Alelu, aleluya!

The Holy Gospel Luke 4:16-22
Reader The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. People Glory to you, Lord Christ.
When he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he went to the synagogue on the sabbath day, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” And he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. Then he began to say to them, “Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” All spoke well of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth. They said, “Is not this Joseph’s son?”
Reader The Gospel of the Lord. People Praise to you, Lord Christ. Santo Evangelio de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo según San Lucas. Gloria a ti, Cristo Señor.
Jesús fue a Nazaret, el pueblo donde se había criado. El sábado entró en la sinagoga, como era su costumbre, y se puso de pie para leer las Escrituras. Le dieron a leer el libro del profeta Isaías, y al abrirlo encontró el lugar donde estaba escrito:
«El Espíritu del Señor está sobre mí, porque me ha consagrado para llevar la buena noticia a los pobres; me ha enviado a anunciar libertad a los presos y dar vista a los ciegos; a poner en libertad a los oprimidos; a anunciar el año favorable del Señor.»
Luego Jesús cerró el libro, lo dio al ayudante de la sinagoga y se sentó. Todos los que estaban allí tenían la vista fija en él. Él comenzó a hablar, diciendo: —Hoy mismo se ha cumplido la Escritura que ustedes acaban de oír. Todos hablaban bien de Jesús y estaban admirados de las cosas tan bellas que decía. Se preguntaban: —¿No es éste el hijo de José?
Evangelio del Señor. Te alabamos, Cristo Señor.
Sermon The Right Reverend Kevin D. Nichols

Great Thanksgiving
The people remain standing

The Celebrant proceeds

13
Through Jesus Christ our Lord. In fulfillment of his true promise, the Holy Spirit came down on this day from heaven, lighting upon the disciples, to teach them and to lead them into all truth; uniting peoples of many tongues in the confession of one faith, and giving to your Church the power to serve you as a royal priesthood, and to preach the Gospel to all nations.
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:
Sanctus S130 Schubert
14
The people stand or kneel
The Celebrant continues
Holy and gracious Father: In your infinite love you made us for yourself; and, when we had fallen into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent Jesus Christ, your only and eternal Son, to share our human nature, to live and die as one of us, to reconcile us to you, the God and Father of all.
He stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself in obedience to your will, a perfect sacrifice for the whole world.
On the night he was handed over to suffering and death, 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 many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.”
Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith:
Celebrant and People
Christ had died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.
The Celebrant continues
We celebrate the memorial of our redemption, O Father, in this sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Recalling his death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these gifts.
Sanctify them by your Holy Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son, the holy food and drink of new and unending life in him. Sanctify us also that we may faithfully receive this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity, constancy, and peace; and at the last day bring us with all your saints into the joy of your eternal kingdom.
All this we ask through your Son Jesus Christ. By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever. Amen.
The Celebrant then continues
And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say,
15
Celebrant and People
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.
Breaking of the Bread
A period of silence is kept.
