Welcome and Notices The Reverend Canon Paul Maybury, Canon Precentor We stand Silence In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

The Children and Young People move to Children’s Space during the hymn

Hymn There’s a wideness in God’s mercy like the wideness of the sea; there’s a kindness in his justice which is more than liberty.

There is no place where earth’s sorrows are more felt than up in heaven; there is no place where earth’s failings have such kindly judgement given.

For the love of God is broader than the measures of man’s mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind.

But we make his love too narrow by false limits of our own; and we magnify his strictness with a zeal he will not own.

There is plentiful redemption in the blood that has been shed; there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head.

There is grace enough for thousands of new worlds as great at this; there is room for fresh creations in that upper home of bliss.

If our love were but more simple, we should take him at his word; and our lives would be all gladness in the joy of Christ our Lord.

Greeting The Lord is with us.

Let us praise his name.

We remain standing as the choir sings

Gloria in Excelsis Ehre sei Gott in der Höhe, und Friede auf Erden und den Menschen ein Wohlgefallen!

Wir loben dich, wir benedeien dich, wir beten dich an, wir preisen dich, wir sagen dir Dank um deiner großen Herrlichkeit willen.

Herr Gott! Himmlischer König! Allmächtiger Vater!

Herr, du eingeborner Sohn, Jesu Christe!

Herr, Gott, du Lamm Gottes, Sohn des Vaters!

Der du die Sünde der Welt trägst, erbarme dich unser!

Der du die Sünde der Welt trägst, nimm an unser Gebet!

Der du sitzest zur Rechten des Vaters, erbarme dich unser!

Denn du allein bist heilig, denn du allein bist der Herr, du allein bist der Allerhöchste, Jesus Christus mit dem heiligen Geiste in der Herrlichkeit Gottes des Vaters. Amen!

Glory be to God on high, peace on earth, good will towards men.

We praise thee, we bless thee, we glorify thee, we praise thee, we give thanks to thee for thy great glory.

O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty.

O Lord, the only begotten Son Jesus Christ; O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us.

Thou that takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer.

Thou that sittest at the right hand of God the Father, have mercy upon us.

For thou only art holy; thou only art the Lord; thou only, O Christ, with the Holy Ghost, art most high in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847)

Old Testament Reading

2 Kings 5.1-3, 7-15 read by Michael Stanlick

Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Aram, was a great man and in high favour with his master, because by him the Lord had given victory to Aram. The man, though a mighty warrior, suffered from leprosy. 2Now the Arameans on one of their raids had taken a young girl captive from the land of Israel, and she served Naaman’s wife. 3She said to her mistress, ‘If only my lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria! He would cure him of his leprosy.’ 7When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, ‘Am I God, to give death or life, that this man sends word to me to cure a man of his leprosy? Just look and see how he is trying to pick a quarrel with me.’

8

But when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent a message to the king, ‘Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come to me, that he may learn that there is a prophet in Israel.’ 9So Naaman came with his horses and chariots, and halted at the entrance of Elisha’s house. 10Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, ‘Go, wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored and you shall be clean.’ 11But Naaman became angry and went away, saying, ‘I thought that for me he would surely come out, and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, and would wave his hand over the spot, and cure the leprosy! 12Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them, and be clean?’ He turned and went away in a rage. 13But his servants approached and said to him, ‘Father, if the prophet had commanded you to do something difficult, would you not have done it? How much more, when all he said to you was, “Wash, and be clean”?’ 14So he went down and immersed himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God; his flesh was restored like the flesh of a young boy, and he was clean.

15

Then he returned to the man of God, he and all his company; he came and stood before him and said, ‘Now I know that there is no God in all the earth except in Israel; please accept a present from your servant.’

This is the word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God. Silence 5

We stand

Hymn All people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; him serve with fear, his praise forth tell, come ye before him, and rejoice.

The Lord, ye know, is God indeed; without our aid he did us make; we are his folk, he doth us feed, and for his sheep he doth us take.

O enter then his gates with praise, approach with joy his courts unto; praise, laud, and bless his name always, for it is seemly so to do.

For why? The Lord our God is good; his mercy is for ever sure; his truth at all times firmly stood, and shall from age to age endure.

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, the God whom heaven and earth adore, from men and from the angel-host be praise and glory evermore.

Words: William Kethe Tune: Old Hundredth CP369

Luke 17.11-19 11

On the way to Jerusalem Jesus was going through the region between Samaria and Galilee. 12As he entered a village, ten lepers approached him. Keeping their distance, 13they called out, saying, ‘Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!’ 14When he saw them, he said to them, ‘Go and show yourselves to the priests.’ And as they went, they were made clean. 15Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice. 16He prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan. 17Then Jesus asked, ‘Were not ten made clean? But the other nine, where are they? 18Was none of them found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?’ 19Then he said to him, ‘Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well.’

This is the Gospel of the Lord.

Praise to you, O Christ.

Sermon The Very Reverend Jerry Lepine, Dean of Bradford Silence

Anthem Großer Gott, wir loben dich, Herr, wir preisen deine Stärke.

Vor dir neigt die Erde sich und bewundert deine Werke.

Wie du warst vor aller Zeit, so bleibst du in Ewigkeit.

Alles, was dich preisen kann, Cherubim und Seraphinen stimmen dir ein Loblied an, alle Engel, die dir dienen, rufen dir stets ohne Ruh’: Heilig, heilig, heilig! zu.

Holy God, we praise Thy Name; Lord of all, we bow before Thee!

All on earth Thy scepter claim, All in Heaven above adore Thee; Infinite Thy vast domain, Everlasting is Thy reign.

Hark! the loud celestial hymn Angel choirs above are raising, Cherubim and seraphim, In unceasing chorus praising; Fill the heavens with sweet accord: Holy, holy, holy, Lord.

Alan Wilson (b 1947)

Creed 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 from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and was made man.

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 worshipped 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.

Prayers of Penitence Christ died to sin once for all, and now he lives to God. Let us renew our resolve to have done with all that is evil and confess our sins in penitence and faith.

Silence Father eternal, giver of light and grace, we have sinned against you and against our neighbour, in what we have thought, in what we have said and done, through ignorance, through weakness, through our own deliberate fault.

We have wounded your love and marred your image in us.

We are sorry and ashamed, and repent of all our sins.

For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, who died for us, forgive us all that is past; and lead us out from darkness to walk as children of light.

Amen.

May the God of all mercies cleanse you from your sins, and restore you in his image to the praise and glory of his name, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Prayers of Intercession

led by Mike deVilliers

In the power of the Spirit and in union with Christ, let us pray to the Father.

After each section this, or an alternative, response is used: Lord in your mercy hear our prayer.

Merciful Father, accept these prayers for the sake of your Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

Giving and Receiving Peace The risen Christ came and stood among his disciples and said, ‘Peace be with you.

Then were they glad when they saw the Lord. Alleluia.

The peace of God be always with you and also with you.

We offer one another a sign of God’s peace

Hymn During this hymn a collection is taken The gifts of the people are presented and the table set with bread and wine The love of God comes close where stands an open door, to let the stranger in, to mingle rich and poor.

The love of God is here to stay, embracing those who walk his way; The peace of God comes close to those caught in the storm, forgoing lives of ease to ease the lives forlorn.

The peace of God is here to stay, embracing those who walk his way; The joy of God comes close where faith encounters fears, where heights and depths of life are found through smiles and tears.

The joy of God is here to stay, embracing those who walk his way; The grace of God comes close to those whose grace is spent, when hearts are tired or sore and hope is bruised and bent.

The grace of God is here to stay, embracing those who walk his way; The Son of God comes close where people praise his name, where bread and wine are blest and shared as when he came.

The Son of God is here to stay, embracing those who walk his way; Words: John L Bell (b. 1949) & Graham Maule (b. 1958) Music: John L Bell (b1949) SP223 10

Prayer of Preparation Holy God, holy and strong, holy and immortal, give us the bread of everlasting life, and make us branches of the true vine.

Amen.

Great Thanksgiving Prayer

Prayer A

It is indeed right, it is our duty and our joy, at all times and in all places to give you thanks and praise, holy Father, heavenly King, almighty and eternal God, through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord.

For he is your living Word; through him you have created all things from the beginning, and formed us in your own image.

Through him you have freed us from the slavery of sin, giving him to be born of a woman and to die upon the cross; you raised him from the dead and exalted him to your right hand on high.

Through him you send upon us your holy and life-giving Spirit, and make us a people for your own possession.

Therefore with angels and archangels, and with all the company of heaven, we proclaim your great and glorious name, for ever praising you and saying:

Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini.

Hosanna in excelsis.

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

Hosanna in the highest!

Johann Christoph Rinck (1689-1750)

Accept our praises, heavenly Father, through your Son our Saviour Jesus Christ, and as we follow his example and obey his command, grant that by the power of your Holy Spirit these gifts of bread and wine may be to us his body and his blood; who, in the same night that he was betrayed, took bread and gave you thanks; he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying: Take, eat; this is my body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of me.

In the same way, after supper he took the cup and gave you thanks; he gave it to them, saying: 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.

Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.

Therefore, heavenly Father, we remember his offering of himself made once for all upon the cross; we proclaim his mighty resurrection and glorious ascension; we look for the coming of your kingdom, and with this bread and this cup we make the memorial of Christ your Son our Lord.

12

Jesus Christ is Lord: Lord, by your cross and resurrection you have set us free.

You are the Saviour of the world.

Accept through him, our great high priest, this our sacrifice of thanks and praise, and as we eat and drink these holy gifts in the presence of your divine majesty, renew us by your Spirit, inspire us with your love and unite us in the body of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Through him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, with all who stand before you in earth and heaven, we worship you, Father almighty, in songs of everlasting praise: Blessing and honour and glory and power Be yours for ever and ever. Amen.

We sit or kneel Silence

The Lord’s Prayer Being made one by the power of the Spirit, as our Saviour taught us, so we pray: 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 us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.

Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.

13

Breaking of the Bread We break this bread to share in the body of Christ.

Though we are many, we are one body, because we all share in one bread.

Giving of Communion Alleluia. Christ our Passover has been sacrificed for us.

Therefore let us keep the feast. Alleluia.

As the Lay ministers receive communion the choir sings.

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi: miserere nobis.

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi: miserere nobis.

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi: dona nobis pacem.

O Lamb of God, that takest away the sin of the world: have mercy upon us.

O Lamb of God, that takest away the sin of the world: have mercy upon us.

O Lamb of God, that takest away the sin of the world: grant us thy peace.

Communion Motet Jauchzet dem Herrn alle Welt. Dienet dem Herrn mit Freuden.

Kommt vor sein Angesicht mit Frohlocken. Erkennet, dass der Herre Gott ist.

Er hat uns gemacht, und nicht wir selbst, zu seinem Volk und zu Schafen seiner Weide.

Gehet zu seinen Toren ein mit Danken, zu seinen Vorhöfen mit Loben.

Danket ihm, lobet seinen Namen, denn der Herr ist freundlich und seine Gnade währet ewig und seine Wahrheit für und für.

O be joyful in the Lord, all the earth; serve the Lord with gladness and come before his presence with a song.

Know that the Lord is God; it is he that has made us and we are his; we are his people and the sheep of his pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and bless his name.

For the Lord is gracious; his steadfast love is everlasting, and his faithfulness endures from generation to generation.

Psalm 100 Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) 14

We remain seated

Hymn Christ bids us break the bread and share the cup he gave, in token of the blood he shed for those he died to save.

It was for us he came, to bear, by human birth, a crown of thorn, a cross of shame, for every child of earth.

The Saviour crucified in glory rose again: we here remember him who died, ascended now to reign.

Our hearts his word obey, in thankfulness and love: we feed on Christ by faith today and feast with him above.

O Christ, once lifted up that we might be forgiven, we take the bread and drink the cup and share the life of heaven.

Words: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Tune: Franconia SP 216

Prayers after Communion Lord, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow us, and make us continually to be given to all good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

We stand

Generous God, you have fed us at your heavenly table.

Set us on fire with your Spirit that when Christ comes again we may shine like lights before his face, who with you and the Spirit lives for ever. Amen.

Hymn Go forth and tell! O Church of God, awake!

God’s saving news to all the nations take: proclaim Christ Jesus, Saviour, Lord and King, that all the world his glorious praise may sing.

Go forth and tell! God’s love embraces all, he will in grace respond to all who call: how shall they call if they have never heard the gracious invitation of his word?

Go forth and tell! The doors are open wide: share God’s good gifts – let no one be denied; live out your life as Christ your Lord shall choose, your ransomed powers for his sole glory use.

Go forth and tell! O Church of God, arise!

Go in the strength which Christ your Lord supplies; go till all nations his great name adore and serve him, Lord and King for evermore.

Words: James E Seddon Tune: Woodlands CP437
