You, noble Art, in how many grey hours, When life’s mad tumult wraps around me,
Franz Schubert
Have you kindled my heart to warm love, Have you transported me into a better world, Transported into a better world!
Often has a sigh flowing out from your harp, A sweet, divine harmony from you Unlocked to me the heaven of better times, You, noble Art, I thank you for it!! You, noble Art, I thank you!

First Lesson
2
Hosea 1:2-10
When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son. The more I called them, the more they went from me; they kept sacrificing to the Baals, and offering incense to idols. Yet it was I who taught Ephraim to walk, I took them up in my arms; but they did not know that I healed them. I led them with cords of human kindness, with bands of love. I was to them like those who lift infants to their cheeks. I bent down to them and fed them. They shall return to the land of Egypt, and Assyria shall be their king, because they have refused to return to me. The sword rages in their cities, it consumes their oracle-priests, and devours because of their schemes. My people are bent on turning away from me. To the Most High they call, but he does not raise them up at all. How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, O Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart recoils within me; my compassion grows warm and tender. I will not execute my fierce anger;
I will not again destroy Ephraim; for I am God and no mortal, the Holy One in your midst, and I will not come in wrath. They shall go after the Lord, who roars like a lion; when he roars, his children shall come trembling from the west. They shall come trembling like birds from Egypt, and like doves from the land of Assyria; and I will return them to their homes, says the Lord. The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Psalm 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 43
107:1-9, 43 • spoken
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, * and his mercy endures for ever.
Let all those whom the Lord has redeemed proclaim * that he redeemed them from the hand of the foe.
He gathered them out of the lands; * from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south. Some wandered in desert wastes; * they found no way to a city where they might dwell. They were hungry and thirsty; * their spirits languished within them.
Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, * and he delivered them from their distress. He put their feet on a straight path * to go to a city where they might dwell.
Let them give thanks to the Lord for his mercy * and the wonders he does for his children. For he satisďŹ es the thirsty * and ďŹ lls the hungry with good things.
Whoever is wise will ponder these things, * and consider well the mercies of the Lord.

Colossians 3:1-11
Second Lesson
If you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth, for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life is revealed, then you also will be revealed with him in glory. Put to death, therefore, whatever in you is earthly: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed (which is idolatry). On account of these the wrath of God is coming on those who are disobedient. These are the ways The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Alleluia Verse

•
sung by cantor, then all
you also once followed, when you were living that life. But now you must get rid of all such things- anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive language from your mouth. Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have stripped off the old self with its practices and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator. In that renewal there is no longer Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all!
Gospel
Luke 12:13-21
The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Luke.
Glory to you Lord Christ
said, `I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, `Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.’ But God said to him, `You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.”
Someone in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the family inheritance with me.” But he said to him, “Friend, who set me to be a judge or arbitrator over you?” And he said to them, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” Then he told them a parable: “The land of a rich man produced abundantly. And he thought to himself, `What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he The Gospel of the Lord.

Stand Down Homeless Event
Stand Down /Project Homeless Connect is an annual one-day resource fair that connects our neighbors who are homeless with services they need. This year it is scheduled for Wednesday, October 5th. We would like to recruit many more folks from Christ Church as people who are homeless are our church’s neighbors in Louisville, and because of Christ Church’s commitment to supporting urban ministry. We need volunteers to assist with guiding participants to/from booths of various agencies that serve people who are homeless, and with footwashing. Footwashing for people who are homeless is an important service/ministry. People who are homeless suffer from many foot ailments and footwashing is a blessing for them. Volunteers are given information but it really is not difficult and it is very rewarding. It will be held at the Salvation Army on Brook Street. For more information or to volunteer, please contact Melinda Collett at melcobro@gmail.com or 287-4175. 3
Downtown Episcopal Outreach (DEO)
DEO addresses gap needs that arise in service agencies throughout central Louisville. Using the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and working with outreach partners including Central Louisville Community Ministries, Our Merciful Savior Episcopal Church and St. George’s Episcopal Church, we help with expenses such as ID application fees, prescription drugs, utilities, and some transportation costs. DEO contributes to the cost of Laundry Love and also covers the costs of the Lunch Bag program that Paul Real and his crew administer. The Lunch Bag program has given out more than 950 Lunch Bags this year. You can help by contributing to the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and by putting coins and bills in the DEO Piggy Bank.
CLOUT (Citizens of Louisville Organized and United Together)
CLOUT is an organization of 18 religious congregations and groups of over 12,000 members working together to solve critical community problems by holding systems accountable. The vision is based on scripture—particularly Micah 6:8 and Matthew 23:23-24, which state that God requires us to do three basic things: “do justice, love kindness (mercy), and walk humbly with God (faithfulness).” CLOUT recently ended a successful year on a very high note—it brought about the funding of JCPS work for restorative justice and building the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. Many thanks to Jim Monin, Mildred Franks, Page Curry, Mildred Payne, John Kiesel and Linda Kiesel for their faithful support of this social justice ministry. Prayerfully consider joining them for this next year of challenges.

Two have been designated as ‘ice cream social’ Sundays, quite easy to do; the dates for these are flexible. We usually have two people per Sunday, though there are some groups of three. You may bring anything you like -- homemade or store bought matters not! Do help us avoid a food desert! Hospitality matters. A sign-up sheet is on the bulletin board.

Stewardship Notes “Whatever is good and perfect comes down to us from God our Creator, who created all the lights in the heavens. God never changes or casts a shifting shadow” James 1:17
Heal our dryness. Salve our parchedness. Make soft and fertile our hard and cracked hearts. O Jesus, Bestower of ‘living water’
Throughout the Bible, we are reminded that God is a giver of all good things. God gives us life and “this fragile earth, our island home”. Our entire life is a reflection of God’s abundance. Your on-going support of the cathedral inspires me and I’m deeply grateful. Thank you for your generosity. It enables our ministries and furthers our mission. Each week, we are nurtured in word and sacrament. Empowered by the Spirit, we can then go into the world to care for those who are ill or hurting, and welcome all those searching for a connection to God and community. My prayer during this season of stewardship is that God as Giver will awaken a new sense of abundance in all of us and an increased commitment to living generously. Prayerfully consider and register your intention to give to God through ministry at Christ Church Cathedral in 2016—you can find a Pledge Card in the pocket of the chair in front of you, at the entrances, or at the office credenza.
Thus far, we have received 87 pledges for the amount of $304,475.04. 12 of these are new pledges; 36 reflect an increase; 6, a decrease; 32 no change. Thank you! Generous God, in our love, teach us to be your hearts and hands in this world. Help us to feel your presence, to know your love, and to be your stewards in this world. We offer all of this up in the name of the Holy Trinity, one God. Amen.

Why do we pray, study, work, listen and build?
Benedict, the father of Benedictine spirituality, suggested that our life is best balanced between prayer, study, and work. We have taken that challenge as the basis of our common life together at Christ Church Cathedral: We pray (worship and the arts). We study (spiritual formation). We work (service to others). In addition, we know that we are sustained by our life together, and that works best when we listen to one another. We also aim to build and maintain a structure that will support all of our ministry efforts. And so: We listen (cathedral life and fellowship), We build (administration). In Cathedral Matters, you will find information about ministry opportunities at the Cathedral which fit into all five of these areas. Under each of the five main categories you will see what is new to the listing for this week. You will notice that some paragraphs repeat weekly, so that our guests won’t miss any news. You are urged to take your Cathedral Matters home with you so that you will have it for ready reference. Now, read about our ministry, think about how you would like to be involved...and jump right in!
